I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue - Humph's Last Show - S50, E6 Dec 2007

The last ever recording of classic BBC Radio panel show I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue to feature legendary host Humphrey Lyttleton, aired December 2007. And yes, I know I misspelled his name on the video! Sorry, Humph...

[@edwinsmith-jones6205]

I was fortunate to be in the audience of this shows recording. I had no idea it was Humph's last ever show 😢

[@TheMimifur]

I do believe that despite all the wonderful fantastic people that are no longer with us, Tim, Barry, Humph, Linda, Jeremy, Graeme and others, this remains a beacon of fun and happiness in a troubled world and I think Jack Dee does a wonderful job as chair with of course Sven and Samantha on his hands!

[@eddisstreet]

Graeme is still with us although he's not been on the show for a while.

[@JP_TaVeryMuch]

And don't worry, I know that you meant to mention the man without whom the show would score no hits at all. I refer to the production's key plonker, the bloke who fires up the laser display board. Oh and mæstro Colin ought to get a nod I s'pose.

Graeme is still alive, & he's had his tea.

Such beautifully, brilliantly and cleverly written and improvised comedy. In the same sort of vein as the two Ronnie’s. Very very clever comedy. This is quintessential British humour at its absolute best.

[@HaFannyHa]

How I miss Humph! Glorious, timeless fun - thank you for posting this!

[@jimthorne304]

I remember an account of Samantha's latest boyfriend in which he was said to be 'elderly, and rather mean, but Samantha says if she butters him up in the right way he still splashes out occasionally'. The audience laughed for 33 seconds!

[@paullacey748]

The best show ever on radio

[@mfranssens]

Some of the best laughs I’ve ever had were listening to ISIHAC, back in the day. Samantha, Lionel Blair, Uxbridge English Dictionary, and many more. I miss the people who made it so good.

[@leonardosimm3536]

Absolutely hilarious. Fabulous stuff.

[@alanbradfield3211]

Timeless, inspired and brilliant

[@iwasglad122]

'Why didn't he take the bloody children outside?' Humph, The Legend!

[@johnsurrey7426]

Thanks for posting this. There hasn’t been a more consistently funny programme in any medium.

[@evieslovelychannel]

Absolutely agree

[@zapkvr]

Definitely. The goons run a close second

[@zapkvr]

Side splitting. Pure bliss

[@bob-sb2zu]

There was only one Humph 👍👍

Priceless - one of the many replies from Mrs Trellis of North Wales 😁😁

[@hangforh6320]

really enjoyed that. thank you evie

[@artful1967]

sadly only Graham in this photo is still with us

[@Motty1066]

I had the same thought. I had the immense pleasure and privilege of meeting and working with Barry Cryer a year or so before he died. He was kind, self-deprecating and of course, heart-stoppingly funny. I hear that Willie R, Humph and Tim BT were equally brilliant. This is still the funniest show on the radio. Anywhere.

[@peteroconnor8812]

I agree - it’s sad that graham’s still with us

[@curiousuranus810]

\Like the jazz trumpeter he was, Humph had the greatest comic timing of anyone in the whole of human history!

Love this episode, how times have changed. No fat jokes, no mother in law jokes, no fun. I try to end my day with an episode from ISIHAC.

[@markbennett9787]

It’s Lyttleton !

[@towitfitr]

Haven't listened to clue since Humph died. Not listened to Just a Minute since Nicholas Parsons passed away. Not everything has to last forever...

[@zapkvr]

The Beatles released a new single yesterday, November 1st, 2023. And you are right

[@Gisigu.]

Jack Dee will never be Humph end of. But he's a great carrier and does a good job at filling the role but that spark isn't the same without Humph

[@barblessable]

We all miss Humph but Jack is suitably sour and curmudgeonly .

[@HaFannyHa]

I've collected all the 'Clue' CDs featuring Humph - just a delight!

[@adriandaw3451]

You're missing out. Jack is just as good, just different.

[@janebattams6607]

Oh nooo ! What happened to the Video of Humph's last show ? And what happened to "Gene Wilder Loses His Shit ?" Aaaaah I wonder if they are on the "paid for You Tube" ?

[@MrGerrymagic]

Programme still running in 2022, still entertaining, but the magic has gone.

[@zapkvr]

Ah no, it hasnt

[@TheMimifur]

No it hasn't. It's just different.

[@Ystadcop]

If you don't like ISIHAC then you ain't proper English. I'm sure my French neighbours are confused by outbursts of random cheering from Chateau Ystadcop.

Actually a new series is on Radio 4, so quit bellyaching about the good old days.

[@JP_TaVeryMuch]

​@@davidhull1481 They do have a point and I'd suggest that it's not bellyaching whatever that may mean. Times move along as is right and unstoppable, but there's a huge Lyttleton sized hole which no amount of dour jibes from Dee can, or should be expected to, fill. Humph's throw caution to the wind schoolboy humour is unbeatable and his timing and mellifluous delivery sans pareil.
