Very entertaining and up-to-date

A new audio version of the Goodies, this was unexpectedly up-to-date and hilarious with reference to the English Parliament and Putin being very on the mark even in 2022. Even more British with the addition of Lumley.
The aged Goodies were well crafted by the writers of this audio. Excellent performances and production. Made my day.

Brought back many memories.

Absolutely loved this audio show. Had all the elements of a ruddy Goodie-time. Easy to visualise all the characters back in the early-years doing all the chaotic mayhem live.

Weapons grade nostalgia.

Tim, Bill and Graeme were a massive part of my childhood and hearing this brought all those memories flooding back. Just delightful.
