I had this memory, shared with two of my oldest friends, of an ancient Goon Show; I blogged about it here. Now, eight years later, I’ve found the recording – I Was Monty’s Treble (‘the story of the film of the book of the tram’). If it’s to your taste, you can find the part remembered in the first six and a half minutes, before Max Geldray puts in an appearance. It was 1958 – but as Eddie Izzard says, timeless.
