'Against all the odds... a brilliant tribute to a show that changed the face of radio comedy forever' --- The Stage

No-one can ever replace the Goons. But fifty years on the world needed them more than it ever had. and so the first ever GMTB - Genetically Modified Tribute Band - was created! And lo. in March 2001 a collection of vintage Milligan scripts were rescued, dusted off and remade for a 21st century audience.

Recorded at London's Playhouse Theatre. Goon Again saw the realisation of an idea conceived ten years previously. The genetic link is provided by Andrew Secombe playing his father Harry's part, Christopher Timothy adopting the role of his father Andrew - the original Goon Show announcer - and Lance Ellington singing in for his vocal star father. Ray. With Jon Glover and Jeffrey Holland taking on the voices of Spike Milligan and Peter Sellers, this special edition also contains previously unheard audition material.

Audio books really are a wonderful thing, not only do they transport you to other worlds, introduce you to other people’s ideas and culture, they are also a lot more flexible than books. The book drains your time in a world where time is a very valuable thing, in mp3or wma format however; stories can be listened to anywhere and on any music device. It doesn’t matter if you use an mp3 players or a cd player, whether you are jogging, washing the pots or transforming the boring commute to work with excitement and intrigue and you can listen to them at any time.

Now with the internet audiobooks are a lot more accessible and easier to obtain than normal books, going online for them is quick, simple and saves time that would be other wise spend trawling through stores trying to find one you really want.

Many sites offer a few free downloadable introductory titles, to get you started and no doubt hooked on the splendour of them. What better way to spend a Saturday evening than to sit back, relax and enjoy a good audiobook, instead of renting a dvd or stagnating in front of the television. Unlike rentals, they can be kept for life and enjoyed again and again.
