Kenneth Williams and Hugh Paddick star as the notorious resting thespians in this hilarious
collection of sketches from Round the Horne.

THE BOOK
‘Oh, hello. I’m Julian, and this is my friend Sandy…’

Through four series of Round the Horne, Julian and Sandy graced each episode with an encounter with ‘that nice Mr Horne’. Each week they’d be up to new tricks, from filmmaking (Bona Prods) to a travel agency (‘something exciting in a cheap package’) and a ‘bijou restaurantette’ (La Casserole de Bona Gourmet).
In these 48 lally-trembling scenarios, Jools and Sand cater for the intimate at ‘omey in Bona Caterers, shake hands with a prospective member in Keep Britain Bona, set themselves up as Bona Tax Consultants and teach the world
to talk proper in Bona School of Languages. Plus, they reveal to Mr Horne just what Julian received on his last birthday…
This fantabulosa selection of Julian and Sandy sketches is brimming with sparkling repartee, gloriously camp humour and outrageous innuendo.
So don’t be strange – come on in, rest your lallies and let your riah down with two of the
best pros in the business.
