Schemes, stratagems and skullduggery set upon the sun-parched landscape of The Old West! Much double-crossing, desert delirium and map-tearing abounds! We also discuss Roger Bannister and 1830s filth

Well, it isn’t everyday I’m asked to perform an extract from lost scripts by giants of comedy on Radio Four’s ‘Today Programme’! A privilege to be asked. Here’s the fab interview with archivist @garybrannan Brannan from the University of York (44m 16s)

Reminder: @TheGSPS own Richard Usher is performing Goon Show style Galton & Simpson material in York in just two days time!

[Gary Brannan @garybrannan]

And EVEN BETTER is that the incredibly talented, brilliant @RichardAUsher will join us on Sunday to perform one, LIVE, for the first time since 1954 with all the music and sound effects and everything. We’ve been moved to a bigger room! Come along!

[richardausher @RichardAUsher]

Incredibly excited and honoured to be performing 'Goon Show' material written for Peter Sellers by the legendary Galton & Simpson as part of @YorkFestofIdeas on 8th June. I'll be the first actor to perform this material since 1954!
