Radioactive

Just having a quick look through the radio listings for Radio 4 tonight and they've got Radioactive listed...

I think this is a new series and if it is I don't know how long it's been running for, but am I right in thinking this was the radio show that became KY-TV? It has Angus Deayton, Helen Atkinson-Wood (Mrs Miggins from Blackadder), Geoffrey Perkins and Phil Pope in the cast.

Can anyone shed any light?

yes, it is the show that begat KYTV

I believe this run has been on for 5 weeks so far, with this week's being the last one... as far as I know, all so far have been repeats (I heard the start of last week's, and it was probably series 4 episode 8; the week before I think was series 5 episode 3)

tonight's show is not described as a repeat in the listings though, so I'm guessing it will be -> this <-

[edit]: the following page seems to confirm that only 1 new episode has been made, and the 5 eps since 12th Nov have been repeats: http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/news/20021111.shtml

Well spotted Spirituel. R4 has been repeating some old Radio Active shows over the last few weeks, building up to a one-off new show, recorded recently withthe original cast.

A good opportunity to cross-promote BBC7 from R4, I woul dhave thought. After all, they've hardly mentioned 7 on 4 since Sunday, have they?.

7 is almost great, BTW.
