Samuel Pepys - For the Term of His Natural Life skit

The radio comedy "The Samuel Pepys Show", written and produced by Doug Edwards and Ian Heydon, ran for three seasons of 13 half-hour episodes from 1983 to 1985.

Starring Higgins, Moore and Kev Golsby, the show was recorded live with a studio audience, something that had not been done since the heyday of radio in the 1940s and 1950s and has not been attempted since.

These shows come from a special program "The Best of The Samuel Pepys Show", featuring highlights from all three seasons, broadcast in 1985.
