@AletiaUpstairs Working on it.

Today I will be a windbag in Windlesham, presenting No Laughing Matter. The title's meant to be ironic but I'll let the punters judge.

For tonight's Blasts from the Past, I'm going to Clapham...but are they going to clap me?

[Bob Sinfield @BobSinfield]

To Bush Hill, Enfield for today's Sellers talk. After I interviewed Milligan, he held out his hand and said, "That'll be a pound."

[Lissa Evans @LissaKEvans]

Meet Mackenzie Bly (not his real name; see back cover).
I wanted to write something purely funny, but I fell in love with my lead character along the way.
It's out in August, but the lovely proofs have just arrived.
Retweet before tomorrow (Sun) evening, and I'll pick 2 winners.

@patmarsh I once wrote a script for Frankie Howerd:- page one: ooo AAA no, page two: here no missus.

@Tracyfilmwales Your Solo radio play was BRILLIANT! Beautifully written. Huge congratulations.

[Bob Sinfield @BobSinfield]

@LynnParsonsUK @magicfm Looks like you've got a lodger...or a Tennant.

@patmarsh Well it predates Get Outta My Pub so I'll say Leave It, He Ain't Wurf It.

Today's Gag Trade visits Hextable, not to be confused with Judy Huxtable, the second Mrs Peter Cook.

Fellow Carrott crunchers: a suave Rob Grant and a camera-shy Doug Naylor (mid-1980s). Great men, great writers. RIP Rob.

Today's Zoomcast of No Laughing Matter recalls the arrest and trial of King Charles the first. Imagine that: a royal personage being arrested.

@RRussellDavies Good to see your younger self on the Kenneth Williams doc. According to the Radio Times, it was made in 2012. Some mistake surely.

[Bob Sinfield @BobSinfield]

To Uxbridge for today's Great Unwatched before a blind and partially-sighted audience.

[Bob Sinfield @BobSinfield]

Today's Gag Trade visits Oxted with news on the end of the peer as he prepares to face court proceedings (I'm Mandy - Try Me).
PLUS reports of a car inspired by the former prince: the AMW (like the man himself, it's an old banger).

Our Sellerbration lunch at Sergio's in Great Titchfield Street. Producer Julian Mayers, cast Jack Klaff, @KathrynHaywood1 @KerryShale and the old scribbler. Heartfelt thanks to all. On the table, Sellers himself in a dodgy wig and matching film.

@RRussellDavies Wishing you a Mary Christmas.

[Bob Sinfield @BobSinfield]

@patmarsh I'd have preferred Bohemian Rhapsody sung by Laurel & Hardy.

[Bob Sinfield @BobSinfield]

To Watlington in Oxfordshire for today's Great Unwatched show, celebrating wit and wisdom on the wireless.

A thought for budget day: the money pot is just one vowel away from the money pit.
