British Comedy Guide, 8th January 2024Just time to mention Wosson Cornwall, a new series in Radio 4's uneven 6.30pm comedy slot. This is, essentially, an old-fashioned silly sketch show, featuring Dawn French among the cast. Many jokes about Rick Stein and second-home owners, but my favourite skit involved two hotel workers, Jess (keen) and LJ (not), moaning about demanding guests. "Yes, you've paid to be here," says LJ. "Exactly. You paid to be here. That's not my fault." I hope they're on every week.
