Belfield loves BBC Radio 4?s ‘I’m Sorry I Haven’t A Clue’.

This is one of the longest running broadcast quiz’s in the world.

Belfield got to meet all of the Stars on tour including the brilliant Graeme Garden.

Here’s a Graeme talking to Alex via YouTube….

Garden was co-writer and performer in the classic BBC radio comedy sketch show, I’m Sorry, I’ll Read That Again, in the late 1960s.

Garden was studying medicine during the early seasons of I’m Sorry, I’ll Read That Again, and this commitment made it difficult for him to be a member of the cast during the third season because of a midwifery medical course in Plymouth.

However, he continued sending scripts for the radio show by mail – and rejoined the cast upon his return to his medical studies in London.

On several occasions his medical qualifications are lampooned; in the 25th Anniversary Show, David Hatch asks him if he is still a writer. Garden: “Here’s something I wrote this morning”. Hatch: “It’s a prescription”. “Yes,” says Garden, “but it’s a funny one…”

Garden is a permanent panellist on the long-running BBC Radio improvisation show I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue in a cast which includes Tim Brooke-Taylor.

He also stars in and co-writes, with Barry Cryer, You’ll Have Had Your Tea, a direct spin-off of ISIHAC, and has contributed to several books from the series including guides to the game Mornington Crescent.

Garden wrote for and appeared with Barry Cryer and Alison Steadman in the 1989 BBC radio comedy sketch show The Long Hot Satsuma.

In 2001 and 2002, Garden wrote for and appeared in the BBC radio comedy sketch show The Right Time, along with Eleanor Bron, Paula Wilcox, Clive Swift, Roger Blake, and Neil Innes. He was also script editor for The Hudson and Pepperdine Show.

Garden’s best known television work is freeform sitcom The Goodies, which he wrote and performed along with Tim Brooke-Taylor and Bill Oddie from 1970 to 1982.

The three appeared in the Amnesty International show A Poke In The Eye (With A Sharp Stick) (during which they sang their hit song “Funky Gibbon”). Garden and Bill Oddie co-wrote many episodes of the television sitcom Doctor in the House.

The Goodies are a trio of British comedians: Tim Brooke-Taylor, Graeme Garden, and Bill Oddie.

They wrote and performed in their eponymous surreal comedy show during the 1970s and early 1980s combining sketches and situation comedy.

Bill Oddie & Graeme Garden are 2 of the 3 Goodies Stars.

They celebrate 40 years of the Goodies just released on DVD.

Enjoy a rare and exclusive interview by 2 of Britain’s comedy greats…..

The three actors met each other as undergraduates at Cambridge University, where Brooke-Taylor was studying law, Garden was studying medicine, and Oddie was studying English.

Their contemporaries included Graham Chapman, John Cleese, and Eric Idle, who later became members of Monty Python, and with whom they became close friends. Brooke-Taylor and Cleese studied together and swapped lecture notes as they were both law students, but at different colleges within the university.

All three Goodies became members of the Cambridge University Footlights Club, with Brooke-Taylor becoming president in 1963, and Garden succeeding him as president in 1964.

Garden himself was succeeded as Footlights Club president in 1965 by Idle, who had initially become aware of the Footlights when he auditioned for a Pembroke College “smoker” for Brooke-Taylor and Oddie.
