Show Notes
How does the comedian Mark Steel get away with cheekily satirising towns and cities that he visits in his eponymous Radio 4 programme?
Mark Steel’s in Town has been running for over a decade, but now he has broken new ground writing and appearing in a radio sitcom, Unite. Mark tells Roger Bolton he thinks all comedians are actors at heart, and questions whether there is such as think as left-wing comedy.
And two listeners review Alun Cochrane: Centrist Dad? Part of a series of stand-up specials on Radio 4.
Presenter: Roger Bolton Producer: Alun Beach Executive Producer: Samir Shah
