In the 1980s there used to be a good BBC radio 4 programme called "Radioactive", a parody of British local radio stations broadcast starring among others Angus Deayton.

There is often comedy on BBC Radio 4 at 18:30 hrs on weekdays. I particularly like the "Now Show" which has several series per year on Radio 4.

Radio4 Extra has some vintage BBC radio comedy.

Yes, I remember that one, they had a take on 'Down Your Way' called 'Round Your Parts'. And then there were the presenters..... Oh dear!

Loved Terry and June, both appeared in Carry on films.

- The "Carry on" films, they were great examplesof British comedy.  I think that the last one was made in 1992 called "Carry on Columbus", there was talk of making another one but to the best of my knowledge it wasn't made.
