The Kitchen
Comedian Alun Cochrane can only pay off his mortgage by being funny, so he takes us on a stand-up tour of his house. From 2013.
Comedian Alun Cochrane has a 25 year mortgage which he can only pay off by being funny.
In this series, he takes us on a room by room, stand up tour of his house.
He has a fridge that beeps at him when he doesn't move quickly enough and a fire alarm he can't reach.
His relationship with his house is a complicated one.
A hoarder of funny and original observations on everyday life, Alun invites us to help him de-clutter his mind and tidy his ideas into one of those bags that you hoover all the air out of and keep under your bed.
This show will help Alun and his house work through their relationship issues and prevent a separation that Alun can ill afford; at least not until the market picks up anyway.
Performed by Alun Cochrane and Gavin Osborn.
Written by Alun Cochrane and Andy Wolton.
Producer: Carl Cooper.
First broadcast on 麻豆社 Radio 4 in April 2013.
