The show that holds a mirror up to nature and then proceeds to give it a rather embarrassing haircut.
Here it is at last, by overwhelming popular demand - Everyman's Guide to Mornington Crescent, the full and unexpurgated history of the most addictive addition to Britain's cultural heritage.
The mystery of this great and baffling game is finally solved with the help of Henry VIII, Claire Rayner, Shakespeare and Beryl Bainbridge.
The unflappable Humphrey Lyttelton presides over panellists Tim Brooke-Taylor,
Willie Rushton, Graeme Garden and Barry Cryer who bring their own brand of wickedly
improvised fun to the proceedings.
It's the authentic antidote to panel games.
They're game. Are you?

The audio of the million-selling book - Pete McCarthy's hilarious journey in search of his Irish roots.
McCarthy's tale of his hilarious trip around Ireland has gained thousands of fans all over the world.
Pete was born in Warrington to an Irish mother and an English father and spent happy summer holidays in Cork. Years later, reflecting on the many places he has visited as a travel broadcaster, Pete admits that he feels more at home in Ireland than anywhere. To find out whether this is due to rose-coloured spectacles or to a deeper tie with the country of his ancestors, Pete sets off on a trip around Ireland and discovers that it has changed in surprising ways.
