This is a very enjoyable compilation of clips of British comedy. I was especially pleased that it included "Flying Sheep" by Monty Python. My main complaint is that this gives you an appetite for more!

I was brought up on BBC comedy, mostly on the television, although as a child I regularly listen to the radio as well. In most of these clips I can close my eyes and picture the scene, as I have already seen them on TV years ago. It was nice to be reminded of them again and more would be better. Great clips, wish there were more!!

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.
