At Last The 2000 Show

[Humphrey]

No, Stuart, I love the old shows you've done - thanks again ! I guess I was just trying to say, clumsily, that if anyone feels that they have an upgrade to an existing show, please upload. I'm sure there's room in the Wiki (infinite capacity ?) for alternate/multiple versions. And personally, colds aside, a good barometer of a show's quality is good ol' Peely's voice ...

I've not listened very closely but it might be due to being recorded on a portable cassette recorder (was anyone still using them in 2000?) or was streamed from a Listen Again webpage (had that started in 2000?).

Maybe the FM was not tuned-in properly ? .. Anyway, if anyone has an upgrade (hi Andrew !), I'd love to hear it - after all, this is a vital all-time FF show ! Sorry if I've offended anyone, it's certainly NOT my intention.
