Tonight's Tele Tip: Count Arthur Strong

Back at last!

Tonight's Tele Tip : Count Arthur Strong

Yes ladies and gents, he's back!

He conquered Radio 4. He conquered BBC2 and now he's heading for BBC1 with the second series of Count Arthur Strong tonight at 10:35.

Quite why it's on so late is beyond me, but at least he's on!

Give him the 3pm Speech slot tomorrow instead of The Queen that's what I say!

Count Yourself In

No sooner has the series finished airing and the DVD has been released, BBC2 have decided to repeat the wonderful Count Arthur Strong tonight at 7:30pm, BBC2

That's something to cheer about! So do yourself a favour and tune in for some laughs

Count Arthur Strong

Count Arthur Strong is, for my money, the funniest thing on TV at the moment. And after just one episode, the BBC ordered a second series.

So why with 3 episodes left of the 6 part series have they moved transmission from Mondays to Tuesdays?

Strange.

I actually recall The Count (the alter ego of comedian Steve Delaney) way back when he would make appearances on Mark Radcliffe's Radio 2 evening show. He's become a firm favourite via the radio and has skilfully crossed over to TV with the help of Graham Linehan (The IT Crowd, Father Ted, Black Books etc) I just love the bumbling former variety performer stuff, makes me giggle every week.
