The only British comedian named after a Lincolnshire market town, Boothby Graffoe has won a cult following (and a Time Out Comedy Award) for his surreal stand-up routines and cerebral comic songs. This collection contains his two critically-acclaimed BBC Radio 4 comedy series, crammed with great gags, marvellous monologues, straw polls, sketches and ditties.
In The Big Booth, Boothby and guitarist Antonio Forcione are joined by special guests including Kevin Eldon, Richard Thompson, Robyn Hitchcock and Mariella Frostrup for twelve episodes of guitar-flavoured songs and observational comedy, including a special show recorded at the Edinburgh Festival.
Boothby Graffoe In No Particular Order features more magnificent meanderings and comic improvisations from Boothby's convoluted brain. The odd and the even odder get an outing as he looks at some things about families that make him laugh, and hosts a not-to-be-missed version of the Round Britain Quiz.
