A sitcom spin-off based on the characters played by Barry Cryer and Graeme Garden in the "Sound Charades" round of I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue. Hamish and Dougal tells the doings of two Scotsman, their housekeeper Mrs. Naughtie (Alison Steadman) and their local Laird (Jeremy Hardy).

Our Review: One of the more unlikely spin-offs in British comedy history. The resultant show was somewhat of a traditional radio comedy, similar to that of The Goon Show or Round the Horne. The series featured the use of comic sound effects and risque humour.

Whilst some may dislike the use of Scottish stereotyping, it is still a highly amusing sitcom worthy of a listen.
