1.8 I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue Explained

All British Comedy Explained… to Abigoliah Schamaun, by Tom Salinsky

1.8: I’m Sorry I Haven’t A Clue. Released 22 January 2026.

After writing and rehearsing actual sketches started to look like too much work for too little pay (this is radio after all), Graeme Garden wondered if there was some way of keeping the I’m Sorry I’ll Read That Again team together but just having them be silly for half an hour. Luckily for him, and us, there was.

Various episodes of I’m Sorry I Haven’t A Clue can be found all over the Internet, with recent editions usually up on BBC Sounds. We’re listening to one early episode before producer Jon Naismith shook it up (series 6, episode 6), one episode post Willy Rushton but now visiting big regional theatres (series 42, episode 2) and one from last year (series 83, episode 1).

Next time we’ll be wrapping up our coverage of Landmarks and looking forward to Season Two.

Here’s a long list of social media systems where you can find the podcast and us.
