Four classic BBC Radio episodes starring the world's most famoud rag and bone men.
Sixty-Five Today,
Wallah Wallah Catsmeat,
The Diploma,
The Bath.
Come with us to Shepherd's Bush on a decrepit horse and cart, and view the young-ish Harold Steptoe (bon viveur, man of learning, Casanova) and his beloved father Albert (penny pincher, emotional blackmailer, dirty old man) in their natural habitat of the scrapyard at 24, Oil Drum Lane.
In these salubrious environs of discarded bric-a-brac, dubious antiquities and downright useless junk, we find our hosts constantly striving for better things — like money, sophistication, and perhaps even a woman or two around the place...
In these four episodes, Albert looks forward to a slap-up birthday treat, and he and Harold fall upon the mercy of their colleagues' charity when the horse goes sick. Harold enrols on a correspondence course to be a television repair man, and then takes it upon himself to build a bathroom in the house.
