i've just seen the 1972 television version of the last goon show of all, of a very cut from the radio version i've got, so that the sense of continuity is lost and some of the gags don't work, but oh! to see the goons in action and to see how it's all done, week after week. how glorious it must have been to be part of the studio audience in the 50s. it's worth the months of impatient waiting to download it just to see peter sellers's tympanum accompaniment of harry secombe in the beginning.
