This's been bugging me
There was a comedy show on Radio 4 earlier this year one of the sketches on which revolved around the conceit that a snowman had been elected president of the USA.

Did anyone else hear it? Can you remember what the programme was?

There's a radio four?

You mean you don't listen to the Now Show?
Most odd.

Nope, sorry
Was it written or improv? We here at casa cowjam are radio4 listeners so may be able to help

It was written
And on in the 11 PM slot. Beyond that, I don't think I can remember much.


Oh - I think that there was another sketch involving someone's arms falling off and being kept in a tub of frozen peas. But I might have been falling asleep by that point and have dreamt it. (That possibility scares me somewhat...)

it's probably Bearded Ladies or The Consultants
depending on whether it was mainly boys or mainly girls. At least you'll be able to google for them now.

All guys
Possibly the Consultants... but I'm not sure. I've emailed the beeb to see if they can help: I'll let you know...

The radio in the office is on a Christmas song loop
I wouldn't mind a few interspersed with other music, but I can tell that by Tuesday I'll be in a fit state to start killing.

On the other hand - "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day". Classic.

That's the problem. But I remember laughing like a loon - and, much as I'd like to think I have the comedic talent to invent something like that, I... er... don't. Bah!
