STRUCK OFF AND DIE: THE COMPLETE SERIES 1-3: A CLASSIC BBC RADIO 4 SKETCH COMEDY

By Tony Gardner & Dr Phil Hammond

Synopsis

All three series of Phil Hammond and Tony Gardner's award-winning comedy show exploding the myths of medicine. Broadcaster Dr Phil Hammond and actor Tony Gardner are best known for their respective roles in Trust Me, I'm a Doctor and Fresh Meat. But in the 1990s, then junior doctors, they made their names as the comedy double-act Struck Off and Die. A huge hit at the Edinburgh Fringe, the show transferred to radio in 1993, winning both a Writer's Guild and a Sony Award. Mixing dark, irreverent jokes, sardonic sketches and improvised interviews, it demystified the mysterious workings of the medical profession - and 30 years on, it remains as hilarious and relevant as when it was first broadcast.
