À propos de ce contenu audio

The bumper final episode of Series One starts with a clip of Olly giving Eddy’s eulogy at St Denys’s Church, Sleaford. Olly’s talking about why Eddy became so obsessed with his memories of doing National Service. After a clip of Eddy talking about National Service, we move to the letter Olly wrote to Eddy on 17 February 1984. Olly bangs on about students bands, student radio, an upcoming performance project, an imaginary art movement and all sorts of whimsical nonsense. Reading back over all this, Olly is inspired to dig out some audio that he recorded for a student radio station a few years later. Then it’s time to pull out a ton of stuff from the Family History Box, including the hat and belt Eddy wore, and some photos of him performing comedy sketches in the barracks. The series ends in style, with more audio from Olly’s student radio show. It’s a sketch called “Celebrity Execution”, in which classic children’s television character Captain Pugwash chooses to meet his maker in a truly bloodthirsty style.
