Re: Any 'Beyond Our Ken' followers out there?

Yes, 'Beyond Our Ken' has the same format as 'Round The Horne', in that it has repeating characters and sketches, however it does not rely so heavily on the kind of humour that carried so much of 'Round The Horne'. BOK is genuinely funny and has some great musical episodes. Actually the musicals are my favourites. I love the song "I'd love to sail with you-ou-ou in a canoo-oo-oo. It is a shame that so many episodes are missing and/or in such poor quality.

Incidentally, has anyone heard the series, 'Stop Messing About'? It was the series the RTH team made after Kenneth Horne died, only with Joan Sims instead of Betty Marsden. I would love to hear that if anyone has it.

BOK is similar to RTH, but a bit more innocent.

Ive never heard 'Beyond Our Ken' but am not a fan of 'Around The Horne'. Is it in the same vein or is it different?
