Four 30 minute Radio 4 programmes presented by Stephen Fry indulging his delight in the English language.
The 4 programmes in this CD release are:
CURRENT PUNS – why weak puns and lame jokes are important and oil the social wheels.
METAPHOR – from the freshly minted to the ancient fossils embedded in our language.
QUOTATION – literary quotations, clever bon mots, malapropisms.
CLICHES – how original coinages gradually become the stock-in-trade of lazy writers.
