The Bradshaws

[caveman69]

Has anyone heard this radio sketch ?
It's about the life and times of a Northern family, Alf and Audrey Bradshaw and their son Billy. All 3 parts are played by Buzz Hawkins and it's one of the funniest things I've ever heard.

hi caveman, they play it late at night on our local station, and it's the dullest thing I have ever heard-I didn't realise it was supposed to be FUNNY! Is it a parody of something else? Is it meant to be a realistic interpretation of northern life? An ironic take on perceptions of northern life? I just found my brain began to bleed after a few moments' listening, and the voices are incredibly annoying!

Yeah, we have got loads of the cd's off ebay ! Brilliant !
