Long-running Radio 4 panel game beats classics Hancock’s Half Hour and Round the Horne
The BBC panel game I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue, which has delighted fans with its deadpan delivery and double entendres for almost half a century, has been voted the greatest radio comedy of all time by a group of expert judges.
Launched as a “self-styled antidote to panel games”, it beat the classics Hancock’s Half Hour and Round the Horne into second and third places out of a long-list of almost 100 sitcoms, satires, and sketch shows from 1939 to the present day that was drawn up by Radio Times readers and radio industry insiders.
