Children's Hour

Children's Hour was a radio sketch show first broadcast in 2008, and presented by Armstrong and Miller's alter egos Craig Children and Martin Bain-Jones,


Now Children's Hour is being repeated on Radio 4 Extra, starting on Wednesday 3rd January at 11.30pm. Although described as a "show for young people", Children's Hour is very much..not that! Extremely funny though, and very highly recommended.

New Pointless recording dates

The next tranche of recording dates for Pointless have been released, running from 22nd January to 8th March.


Recordings are back to their usual home in Elstree Studios in Borehamwood, just north of London. They're really good fun to attend, so I highly recommend applying for free tickets. See how tall Richard really is! Hear Xander swear!
