The Complete History of the BBC (Abridged)

Terence is a huge BBC fan; so huge that he's established a museum dedicated to it in his garden. Ably assisted by his longsuffering wife, Ingrid, he is hosting a sneak preview of the presentation he is preparing for when the BBC finally show up that will establish his reputation as a serious broadcast historian. As Terence becomes ever more fanatical in his devotion, however, will their marriage be able to take the strain?

This fact filled show charts (almost) everything from the BBC since it started on radio in 1922, through to the digital age – whilst also uncovering the cracks in a failing relationship.

Written by Alix Cavanagh, with additional material by Malcolm McKenzie and Gordon Ridout, the production is Five Rounds Rapid’s first show and played to sell out audiences at the 2013 Edinburgh Festival Fringe and 2014 Brighton Festival Fringe.
