"Four BBC Radio 4 comedies from the award-winning Nick Mohammed, featuring an array of comic creations including Mr Swallow ‘Delightfully bonkers!’ The Guardian Double Emmy-nominated actor, comedian and writer Nick Mohammed is well known for his portrayal of Nate in Ted Lasso and his stage and screen performances as his critically-acclaimed alter ego Mr Swallow. For radio, he has written and starred in four fantastic comedy series, collected together in this audio anthology and co-starring Anna Crilly (Lead Balloon) and Colin Hoult (After Life). Nick Mohammed in Quarters features fast-paced sketches and monologues from Nick and friends. In these four episodes, you’ll meet an awkward loans clerk, a multi-tasking air traffic controller, a travel agent who doesn't do 'exotic’ and a manic anger management facilitator. Plus, there’s the weather forecast delivered backwards, smoothies in the jungle and the job interview from hell... Nick Mohammed in Bits comprises four one-off comic plays showcasing some of his best and most idiosyncratic characters, from a detective taking witness statements from an unhappy couple to self-important Sloane student Lila, clueless wildlife presenter Daniel Thornthwaite and lifestyle guru Mr Swallow. In the hit sitcom Detective Sergeant Nick Mohammed, we join DS Nick and his long-suffering CID colleagues Colin and Anna (plus special guests Peter Dickson, Kate Alexander, Margaret Cabourn-Smith and Will Andrews) as they attempt to solve a murder, tackle hostage negotiations, get to grips with a student protest (with the help of Lila from In Bits), and deal with a bank heist. Series 2 sees the DS discovering a forgery ring, testifying in court, on the trail of a dangerous fugitive and providing additional security for a major event. Never have serious crimes been made more entertaining, whilst remaining utterly, utterly tasteful! Also included is Apollo 21, a one-off mockumentary profiling the pioneering astronauts from the 1968-1972 moon missions. Forty years after man first set foot on the lunar surface, Buzz Aldrin and Mike Collins come together to commemorate the anniversary and tell their stories – with contributions from Neil Armstrong’s mum and Laika, the first dog in space.

The Headset Set: The Complete Series 1 and 2: A BBC Radio 4 comedy drama
"The BBC Radio sketch show set in a vast call centre Smile5 is the mail-order catalogue company that sells anything and everything, from foot spas to fishing insurance, Rolex watches to lawnmowers. And way out of town, miles from anywhere, is its immense call centre, populated by the Headset Set: team leader Sailesh, recently transferred from Bangalore and hiding a dark secret; long-term employee (and determined technophobe) Bernie; self-loathing, streetwise cynic Aleesha; and Big Tony, who treats the job as a sideline to his own, somewhat shadier enterprises. Along with Ralph, the unsympathetic head of training; childlike Bradley, who's too nervous to make calls; and the recalcitrant HR department, they spend their days dealing with strange requests and even stranger people. In these twelve hilarious episodes, we eavesdrop on both sides of their bizarre, horrific and ludicrous phone calls, as well as following the ups and downs of call centre life. Series 1 sees the hapless operators thrown into chaos by a new phone system; falling ill en masse; coping with appraisal day and reacting to the news that their colleague Dan has died. And in Series 2, the team welcome new colleague Scott, deal with missing lunches and a massive hole in the middle of the office; bring their dogs to work and prepare to suffer the Curse of the Thermostat... This sparkling sketch show was created by Stephen Carlin and James Kettle, penned by a team of comedy writers - including established names such as Madeleine Brettingham and Jon Hunter as well as new, emerging talent - and script edited by Dan Tetsell and James Kettle. It stars Chizzy Akudolu, Margaret Cabourn-Smith, Colin Hoult, Phaldut Sharma, Philip Fox and Lucy Montgomery.

The Brig Society: The Complete Series 1-4: The BBC Radio 4 comedy show
"Shortlisted for the BBC Audio Drama Award 2015 for Best Scripted Comedy (Studio Audience) In the complete Series 1-4 of the multi-award-winning hit show from the people who brought you Cabin Pressure and Armando Iannucci's Charm Offensive, stand-up comedian Marcus Brigstocke has been put in charge of a thing! In each episode, Marcus finds he's volunteered to be in charge of a big old thing - a hospital, a prison, the banking system, the great British press - and each week he starts out by thinking 'Well, it can't be that difficult, surely?' and ends up with 'Oh - turns out it's utterly difficult and complicated. Who knew...?'. Helping him fail to find the answers are regular guest stars such as Rufus Jones (Hunderby, Holy Flying Circus), William Andrews (Sorry, I've Got No Head), Margaret Cabourn-Smith (Miranda) and Colin Hoult (from Ricky Gervaise's Derek). Together they tackle the ills of British society, from the House Of Lords and internet trolling all the way up to the big issues - like why a paisley hanky is good for hiding disreputable stains, and how to use toothpaste to fool your landlord. Written by Marcus Brigstocke, Jeremy Salsby, Toby Davies, Nick Doody, Dan Tetsell, Steve Punt and Tom Neenan.
