Yummy Mummy: Series 2, episode 2

Resonance FM’s high-octane, low-concept children’s light entertainment bonanza for forward-thinking little people and backward-thinking big people. This week everyone at the station is very excited to be receiving a visit from HRH The Prince of Radio, especially despotic station commander Thomas-Weaver-Baxter, who is planning to desperately beg for an increase in funding. Unfortunately he just happens to be passing underneath the ladder where Yummy Mummy is making some last-minute repairs to the Resonance FM escutcheon and receives a spanner to the cranium, thereby drastically impairing his begging abilities. Will jazz-physician Dr. Gillespie’s experimental hard-bop technique work its remedy before the princely motorcade graces the car-park? Will Resonance receive its much needed cash injection? What exactly is an escutcheon? And is anybody actually listening? Find out inside!

Hooting Yard: The Bats Of Remorse

To attract monkeys to create divertisements among the cakes and tea-strainers at your tea party, you will have to create the right conditions for them, and this is where a qualified monkey feng shui consultant proves a boon. They tend to charge quite high fees, and rarely accept payment in nuts, so be warned that your tea party overheads will be steep. By “overheads” I do not mean the string affixed to the ceiling, because you have already deposited that in a bin or drawer, along with the massive sugarlump dangling from it.

This episode was recorded on the 20th May 2010. A complete transcript of this episode can be found on Frank Key’s Hooting Yard website. Accompanying Hooting Yard On The Air, the five publications We Were Puny, They Were VapidGravitas, Punctilio, Rectitude & Pippy BagsUnspeakable Desolation Pouring Down From The Stars, Befuddled By Cormorants and Inpugned By A Peasant And Other Stories are available for purchase.
