How does one play this? Kittybrewster 11:59, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

It's available as an audio CD [1], possibly occasionally repeated (try BBC Radio 7), sometimes available in binary newsgroups MikesPlant 14:36, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
There's directions on obtaining and then installing the Ogg codec to play audio samples here: Wikipedia:Media help (Ogg).
If you are using Windows then go straight to Step 2 and download the codec from [Illiminable] (the Ogg Codecs for windows - Windows All Versions - 824,901 bytes - Download Now one). When the file has downloaded, run the setup program to install it.
Then click on the Wikipedia excerpt-link and the audio file will be offered to you to either open or save to your hard disk. Choose 'Save' and wait for it to download.
When the file has downloaded, right-click on it and select Open With, then Windows Media Player and it will play. Ian Dunster 09:29, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hyphen?

Does Giles Wemmbley- (or )Hogg have a hyphen? On the CD cover, on the leaflet inside, and on the official website, it doesn't; but, as with other posh names, and on the official website, it does. --Islomaniac 973 21:53, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unverifiable

Because the episode list is unverifiable, I cannot tell if [2] is vandalism or not. In cases where it's impossible to determine vandalism from accurate information, I think it best to remove the information completely per WP:V. --Ronz (talk) 16:45, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

'Postcards' from the frist series are available at Marcus Brigstocke's website. They appear to corroborate at least the first series. Pontificake (talk) 18:16, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the link. I've added back the episode list in the hope that more verification is forthcoming. --Ronz (talk) 19:38, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
