"Their favourite treat is cheese with homemade chutney, but they never object when she palms them off with relish"... Just gold. Pure, unadulterated gold.
It's complete filth but that wouldn't be at all funny if delivered by anybody else, it would just be embarrassing. The whole point is that Humph delivers it as if it's not at all filthy - that's why it's funny. 😃
I was so sorry to hear that the writer of these lines, Iain Pattinson, had passed away last week, so young. Let’s hope there’s a programme to celebrate his incomparable talents - preferably after the watershed. If not, I’ll just have to keep on playing this wonderful compilation. I was lucky enough to go to a few Clue recordings over the decades, from the early days at the Paris, to October 2019 in Shrewsbury. Deservedly voted the greatest BBC radio comedy of all time. Happy, happy days. RIP, Iain, reunited with Tim Brooke-Taylor. And Jeremy. And Linda. And, of course, the incomparable Humph. There’s a hell of a programme waiting to be recorded somewhere. And thank you, Mark, for this collection of magnificent, unreconstituted filth.
@@markcampbell8950 Hear hear. I can't tell you how much this has cheered me up after a rubbish day, or made me laugh my head off while cooking. Thanks for compiling it
All of these compilations are great, thanks for making and posting them. The Coln Sell compilations are so brilliant too, I keep listening to bits of them all and never fail to laugh, they are fresh and so unique each time. They should be prescribed on the NHS......

Thank you so much for creating this. It was a big undertaking but very much appreciated. I met Humph at one of his jazz gigs once and said how much I love ISAHAC and especially the Samantha comments. He just looked at me blankly and said "I don't understand them". I played some of these to an American friend of mine and after a while of me not being sure if she even understood them, she eventually said "These are REALLY filthy!" I agree with the person who commented how good it would be to get his Colin Sell introductions.
Bloody hell, I had missed that news! So on 15th March 2020 in Huddersfield, not only were we privileged to witness Tim's last recording, but also Iain's last two shows. A fun night that now feels even more like an honour.
Mark, I have been a fan of ISIHAC for many years but I've just stumbled on this compilation. I hereby accuse Samantha, Humph and you of genius and brilliance. Thank you so much.
Listening to the Samantha and Sven puns was part of the perpetual joy of listening to "I Am Sorry I Haven't A Clue". Humphrey Lyttleton's dry delivery made these !
This show deserves a place in the pantheon of BBC all-time comedy greats, shoulder-to-shoulder with the usual popular big-hitters. It's a perfect combination of great writing and Lyttelton's delivery: timing, baffled demeanour, and poker-faced undersell.
@@markcampbell8950 Ha. Sorry, too many years of living in the US. Big hitter = batter in baseball who consistently swings for the fences and hits it out of the ballpark. Substitute cricket equivalent. I did well on demeanor/demeanour though.
Absolutely 100% agree. This is old style true comedy of which cannot be matched by present day comedy. This makes me laugh so much. Cant say the same for present day comedy. Hump was simply the best along with the great Barry Cryer. Sadly passed today. All panel participants so clever and hilarious absolute genius program. Will never be matched!!
The king of the undersell. Even in his last performance (it's on YT), his semi-astonished look at the audience as they laughed is double funny. Missed to the point of hurting. And we also lost Tim Brooke-Taylor today. Brutal.
Humph had an old saying from his days as a gigging musician. When a musician was feeling poorly before a show, Humph would tell them not to worry, Dr Gig will look after you. He meant, of course, that adrenaline and the buzz of playing will get you through a show no matter how you feel, but the expression itself is a lovely one. Dr Gig was looking after Humph that night.
I don't know how old you are, but from now on, for your services to ISIHAC fans, you should surely be honoured with the title, "The kindly old archivist".
@@markcampbell8950 I'm confused, can you confirm if it was Galphimia glauca, Cassia fistula (which being of the legume family is related to a pea), or Pyrostegia venusta (which grows largely on treliis's)
As i grow older, i`m 60, i feel more and more grateful, that i lived in a Britain where this kind of humour was enjoyed , and not umm and ahhh, by those who search for things to be offended by.
Absolutely magnificent! In the tradition of the old music hall, with every remark quite innocent …… unless you choose to think otherwise! This is on an equal level with the Terry Wogan “Janet and John” CDs. Hearty, raucous, rumbustious, dare I say Shakespearean, humour. Nothing for people of a nervous disposition! Brilliant!
Glad you liked my labour of love - Humph was a genius. I always thought his supreme skill was giving the impression that he really didn't want to be there.
I really love the clever derogatory intoductions to the teams. It would be great to hear a collection of those. One that comes to mind: "We couldn't ask for four more talented professional comediens...so we have to do with what we've been given. Let's meet the teams."
Frankly there are SO many compilations I could do, but time and effort meant these were the ones I chose: Samantha, Lionel, Mrs Trellis and good old Colin Sell. Hope you enjoy them all!
Introducing the contestants as "four of the most notable in their profession"....Pause...."I'm sorry, I think that should read not able in their profession". Priceless delivery Humph. Sorely missed.
@@timwingham8952A vaguely remembered one... "We had a telegram from Graeme's agent, saying that he can't be with us as he's currently staring at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane........hang on, I think I misread...........no, that's right."
I listened to all of it right through and never understood what the audience was laughing at. The poor gentleman reading it out seemed as confused as me. I then listened with my wife who was rolling about laughing. When she explained what the fuss was about I was shocked at how dirty my wife's mind is!
The combination of writer Ian Pattinson, Humphrey Littleton and the ethereal Samantha produced some of the greatest laughs on the brilliant radio 4 "Clue". Brilliant,just brilliant.
@@paulfreeman4900 More that no-one under 18 listens to Radio 4. I was shocked by some of the language and choice of subjects on the 2pm radio play some weekdays
When I was at school I remember one kid who went mad about a radio programme called I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again, but I never managed to get into it, watching Monty Python on TV instead. After that I moved abroad to a country where humour is so advanced that they still think the funniest thing in the world is somebody slipping over on a banana skin. Then just a few weeks ago, a friend sent me a link to this clip and I laughed for roughly 1 hour, 16 minutes and 47 seconds. How I managed to miss such brilliant comedy is a mystery to me but I'm glad I found it. All I can say is that if anyone ever asks you to say what typical English comedy is, just tell them to listen to this. It must be in our genes. I would love to be in Samantha's genes.
Better late than never to the party, Graham! So glad you enjoyed this. With Humph in the chair, this programme was pretty much the acme of sophisticated British vulgarity.
@@markcampbell8950 - They got away with this 'filth' on the BBC by having it written in the scripts innocently and claiming any filth was in the mind of the beholder. Humph would often read these out and look at the audience with bewilderment during the laughter. Comedic moments to treasure. RIP Humph.
Never to listen to this on public transport - people are looking at me in a most alarming way!! Bloody genius writing , and of course the Chairman’s delivery!!!
One of may faves wasn't there (unless I missed it) Samantha was telling me that she has a new boyfriend who's a butcher who loves making pies. She's already had his Steak and Kidney and is really looking forward to trying his tongue in cider.
Samantha's been to a race course and she had a walk around the paddock and got chatting to a young jockey. She was interested in whether he was better on the flat or the jump, and even offered assistance with his mount...
Used to love the Samantha lines. Some are so clever. The only rival was that of Julian and Sandy when they spoke polari. eg “ he was a dab hand on a cottage upright”
Oooh I dunno.I bet there's a FB group....I hear Samantha tried joining one - but she didn't know whether it was called a 'Group' or just the letter 'G'. So she ended up joining a Group or G.
Which gag has the longest laugh? The one about the "Italian gentleman friend" (35:45) had a full 30 seconds' worth of honest hearty laugher. Yu can almost hear the tears in their eyes! But still I'd love to find one longer (as Humph might have put it).
I have a very dodgy recording from 1982 when she was first introduced. It was a year before I realised she didn't really exist. If she was 20 then she must be over 60 now. She is a game girl.
It was many years ago, maybe even predates your recordings, cant swear it was on ISIHAC, or some other smut vehicle come to think of it. Glad you like it, thanks for your morale-boosting work.
Samantha has her knockers, but I think she does a wonderful job.
And thank you for slipping in a bit of Sven.
"Their favourite treat is cheese with homemade chutney, but they never object when she palms them off with relish"...
Just gold. Pure, unadulterated gold.
Such clever punning! The scriptwriters were consistently brilliant and Humph's delivery was always faultless.
That was one of the moments when I'm almost choking with laughter! How on earth Humph got through that one without corpsing, I don't know!
I listened to this all the way through and it is sheer filth. I loved every minute of it. Good on you Mark
It's only double entendre, the only good thing imported from France.
It's complete filth but that wouldn't be at all funny if delivered by anybody else, it would just be embarrassing. The whole point is that Humph delivers it as if it's not at all filthy - that's why it's funny. 😃
