Title: The Men from the Ministry: More Episodes from the Early Years: Selected Episodes from Series 4-7 of the Classic BBC Radio Comedy Author: Edward Taylor Narrator: Ronald Baddiley, Norma Ronald, Richard Murdoch, Deryck Guyler, John Graham, Full Cast Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 24 minutes Release date: November 28, 2024 Genres: Classics Publisher's Summary: 35 episodes from Series 4-7 of the hugely popular Civil Service sitcom The original ‘Yes Minister’, The Men from the Ministry was a radio comedy phenomenon, running for 15 years and 13 series between 1962 and 1977, with a final fourteenth series broadcast internationally in 1980. In this second volume, featuring 35 specially chosen episodes from Series 4-7, bumbling bowler-hatted bureaucrats Deryck Lennox-Brown and Richard Lamb (aka ‘Number One’ and ‘Number Two’) cause confusion in the corridors of power as they attempt to tackle the many and varied challenges of the General Assistance Department. Whether they’re hitting the buffers over a London tube station, getting inconvenienced by public toilets, baring it all for the sake of a new motorway route or scaling new heights for Sir Gregory’s poster campaign, they’re sure to get into hot water... Deryck Guyler stars as Number One and Richard Murdoch as Number Two, with Norma Ronald as Mildred Murfin, Ronald Baddiley as Sir Gregory Pitkin and John Laurie as Mr Dougal. Guest stars include Kenneth Horne, Sam Costa, Patricia Hayes, Clive Dunn, Jo Manning Wilson and Bill Pertwee.
