Stand-Up Specials


BBC Radio 4 stand-ups zoom through angst from all angles. The BBC comedy series brings together half-hour sets from established acts such as Ruby Wax and Lucy Porter to newer acts including Kiri Pritchard-McLean, Imran Yusuf, Athena Kugblenu and Joz Norris. They all reward a listen – and, at only 28 minutes a pop, can be digested in the time it takes to (not) travel to work or knock up a socially isolated dinner ... Enjoy!

This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
