Count Arthur Strong will be recording two more episodes of his radio sitcom very soon.
Count Arthur Strong’s Radio Show! first aired on BBC Radio 4 in 2005 and ran for 7 series until 2012 when the former variety star transferred to BBC TV in his eponymous sitcom which was nominated for a BAFTA and was voted 4th best sitcom of the 21st Century in the Radio Times. Count Arthur Strong broadcast its third and final series on BBC1 in May and June, contending with a run broken by this year’s snap election and extended Wimbledon coverage.
In recent years Count Arthur Strong’s Radio Show has continued with seasonal specials, many of which have been broadcast on Christmas Day. Having won the Sony Award for Best Radio comedy in 2009, the series was voted the Best Radio Sitcom by The British Comedy Guide in 2016 (and many thanks to all of you who voted).
This year the BBBC have commissioned two episodes of Count Arthur Strong’s Radio Show!, one of which will be a Christmas special for this year with the 50th episode being broadcast later in 2018. We will be recording these on Monday 13th November 2017 at the Lowry in Salford. It’s going to be a great night with all the radio show regulars. We will start promptly at 7:30PM.
