Fen Tigers

Dennis telling Mr South his vision of life in Heaven is one of his best-loved and best-remembered broadcasts. Thousands of listeners have begged us to include it in a collection; so here it is, along with his encounter with a drinks machine when attending an interview and his battle with a census form.

This second collection from the 1990/91 season also includes the tearful triumph at darts of the downtrodden Sally Fields, the truth about pygmies and a comprehensive introduction to how football is played in Grunty Fen.

You'll never think of heaven in the same way again.

Running time: over 70 minutes of pure Fen nonsense.
