Unedited interview with the undisputed tsars of British TV comedy - Ray Galton and Alan Simpson

Ray Galton and Alan Simpson met as teenagers in a TB sanatorium in 1948. They were probably afflicted by boredom and a sense of alienation as well as their illness because all the other occupants were much older than them. Writing saved them, and together they wrote themselves into good health, going on to become one of the best-loved and most enduring writing partnerships in comedy history.

This would have been recorded around 1995.
