Perrier nominated sketch troupe We Are Klang bring their anarchic silliness to BBC Radio 7 in the form of improvised mockumentaries looking at the careers of living legends.

When Britain's most ridiculous alcoholic sets his heart on becoming a war poet, little does he realise that his poetry will kill as many people as the Vietnam War itself. As for Max Phantasmo, his stand-up routines are so bad he's been banned from performing in public.

Travelling, meeting people, growing beards and dysentry - in one episode we meet two of the UK's most celebrated explorers.

Lastly, we hear about Gummy Monkey, the controversial Broadway musical, which ran for just three days.
