STEPTOE AND SON RADIO SHOW – CHRISTMAS EDITION – Adapted by John Hewer
Based on the original scripts by Ray Galton and Alan Simpson

A NEW RADIO PLAY BASED ON ORIGINAL FESTIVE SCRIPTS BY RAY GALTON AND ALAN SIMPSON, BY HAMBLEDON PRODUCTIONS.

Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without a visit to 23 Oil Drum Lane to catch up with the nation’s favourite rag-and-bone-men!

“What sort of Christmas dinner do you call that? We’ve had tinned soup, tinned turkey, tined peas, followed by tinned pudding and tinned cream… It’s a wonder we ain’t got bleedin’ metal poisoning!”

Albert and Harold – united by blood, divided over everything else – seem doomed to spend their Christmases in each other’s company. Harold, of course, has his flights of fancy. His “dirty old man” Albert, of course, has other ideas…

These much-loved episodes of classic comedy from Ray Galton and Alan Simpson have been freshly adapted into a new festive radio play by Hambledon Productions – the company behind the recent sell-out successes’ Just Like That! The Tommy Cooper Show and Steptoe and Son.

The Railway Children

16th/17th/18th/19th/22nd/23rd/24th December 7.00pm or 2.00pm

The Railway Children –

Set in and around a country railway station at the turn of the twentieth century, the plight of the railway children grappling with their new environment is imaginatively brought to life for a modern audience whilst losing nothing of the original spirit, humour, tension, and adventure of the famous film.

When Roberta, Peter and Phyllis’ father is mysteriously taken away, their mother is forced to move them all to a rather tiny, miserable cottage in the countryside. The only good thing about it is the nearby railway and the host of colourful characters who keep it running.

The children soon learn that although times are hard, there is fun to be had and sometimes you will find friendship and freedom in the most unexpected of places.
