William Joins the Carol Singers

William and the Outlaws perform tunelessly, disgracefully. Ancient Aunt Jane thinks it's a pack of wolves. But there鈥檚 a secret motive behind William鈥檚 seasonal contribution.

Laughter on the air with Martin Jarvis. After last year's lockdown-episodes and Feedback's recent plea for more Just William exploits, here鈥檚 another escapist bunch of five.

Apart from our lateral-thinking hero, there are some wonderful guest-star characters in this newly recorded series of classics 鈥� including control-freak Violet Elizabeth Bott, who can 鈥榮cweam an鈥� sweam 鈥榯il she鈥檚 sick!鈥�

In Episode 1, William believes he鈥檚 as good at 鈥榗arol-singin' as anybody in the world - 鈥榳hen I start singin' you c'n hear me at the other end of the village.鈥� He and his Outlaws perform tunelessly, loudly, disgracefully. Ancient Aunt Jane thinks it's a pack of wolves. An exciting, ear-splitting evening. But this Christmas, William and chums have a secret plan. It鈥檚 to 鈥榯orture鈥� their relations into providing acceptable Christmas presents. Timeless comic invention.
