The
Legendary Series
Radio 5
1991
Six-parter charting days in the (supposed) lives of various
‘legendary’ characters (Noah, Wyatt Earp, Dr Livingstone), each in the
company of a different presenter: those appearing included Patrick Barlow
and Jeremy Hardy. Ostensibly targetted at children, the series was
written by Tim de Jongh of Radio 4’s And Now In Colour
and The Skivers.
