I was 2 days old when this first aired!, many thanks…I don’t remember it.

Greetings 9 years later , still listening, many cheers

Wonderful comedy from a bygone age. Thanks Dermot. 😃

I do agree with pauloliver6813's comments about the "Jimmy" character. However, then it was different times and different viewpoints which would not be tolerated now. The comedy though was spot on for the era it was produced, and let's face it - it is funny and is comedy gold. Thanks Dermot. ❤

Soooo funny 😂😂😂😂

I still get a smile when i hear the sig tune and it takes me back to sitting next to a tranny radio listerning. To jim talking about beeky billington 😢

I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Higginbottom is timeless. 😄

Very enjoyable holiday romp. 😃

This is one of the best. 😃

Wonderful comedy, thanks OTRS 🙂

Audio level is unusually low?

Great stuff. Thanks Dermot. ❤

Dermot. What can we say, but thank you very much for posting all these "Clitheroe" radio shows for us. ❤

Dermot, many thanks for all these. I remember this one from when it was originally broadcast all those years ago. ❤❤

Brilliant

I am a binge listener and enjoy every minute of these. Thanks Dermot. 😃

Naughty JImmy. 😄😄😄

It shows that the mischievous scallywag Jimmy can sometimes have a heart of gold. Danny Ross was excellent. Thanks Dermot. 😀😀😀

In the credits at the end of the show, it stated that Brian Truman and Dereck Nimmo played the character of J B Ironside. This certainly has confused me as I thought that it was purely Dereck Nimmo. Oh well! 😃

Hi Dermot, I will always continue to thank you for these postings. No heaped praise can be enough for the pleasure you have given to me and many others. Over 25,000 views bear witness to that. Cheers😃. 🥃

Cheers Dermot. Great gentle comedy. 😀

A big thank you to Dermot for taking the time to provide us with so much entertainment. ❤

I agree with all the comments. Danny Ross was vital to "The Clitheroe Kids" success. In comedy duos, there is usually a partnership where one is the Comic and the other is the "Straight" who sets up the comedy for the punch lines or comedic entertainment to be delivered. Not in Jimmy and Danny's case though, they both play it for laughs, Sheer comedy genius. 😄😄

Absolutely superb interaction between Jimmy and Alfie. Dermot thank you for the time and effort you put in for our enjoyment.

😄😄Danny Ross is absolutely brilliant in this. I too could not stop laughing. Thanks, Dermot. ❤

I cannot thank you enough Dermot. I keep returning to these, and no doubt will hear this again sometime. 😃

When I was a kid I could only dream about growing up one day to be known as “The clit heroe kid” 😂

I remember listening to Jimmy Clitheroe when l was a kid in the 60s. He was very popular. 😊. Thanks for uploading all these episodes. 😊

😄😄😄 This helped me through a night of insomnia. Thank you, Dermot.

I heard all these when they were originally aired. Thank you so much for sharing these. ❤

Brilliant

Very funny and no bad language which is refreshing these days

get it back on telly

ill have to visit here some day last time i came cafe was closed

Jimmy's voice is a familiar memory on the radio. I think it was at Sunday lunchtime when my Dad had the radio on and we listened as we ate. Wonderful memories!

Funny

Fantastic series when comedy was pure, great to go back to the 50s and not hear one four letter word, all these actors are sadly missed!!🎉🎉😂😅❤❤❤

Im 19 and started listening to this as a young kid, classics

Thanks for these Dermot. ❤

The audience were rolling in the aisles and helpless with laughter with this one!

Theodore Cray was a right queen.

I used to listen with my family .

Jimmy Clitheroe used to service all the sailors at the dockyard with his tiny hairless hole.

It's a pity we're missing the very end. I like Jimmy's "last words".

Did someone say BBC2 for the ballet? Very modern! I didn't know the Clitheroes were that well off.

nut a kidd no mo!
