Count Arthur Strong talks about his life, work and inspiration. Not only does he shed a little light on his humble beginnings and showbiz lifestyle, but listeners also learn how he came by his title. Includes 5 of the best episodes from the show's six series.

Count Arthur Strong's unique brand of "addlepated" malapropisms and misapprehensions has kept BBC Radio 4 audiences laughing for six series.

And now the man himself is set to talk about his life, work and inspiration. Not only does he shed a little light on his humble beginnings and showbiz lifestyle, but listeners also learn how he came by his title.

Facing Count Arthur in the studio is the man who helped nurture his nascent radio career - Mark Radcliffe. In between bouts of Frost/Nixon style verbal jousting, listeners hear a choice selection of the Count's exploits - including a night out with Count Arthur, Egyptological lecture engagements, and a trip to France during which he is (apparently) mistaken for James Bond.
