The Children's Hour (radio comedy)

The Children's Hour (radio comedy)

"The Children's Hour" was a UK 4 part comedy programme broadcast by the BBC on Radio 4 between 2 December 1998 and 30 December 1998. It starred Alexander Armstrong and Ben Miller as media journalists Craig Children and Martin Bain-Jones in a spoof music/children's/cultural review programme. No episode was broadcast on 23 December 1998 due to extended news coverage.

Each episode would see them attempting to get a scoop on the opposition by visiting various events such as music festivals and media parties ; although most of the time they ended up making fools of themselves - on one occasion attempting to interview a non-existent band called "Atering-Catering-Cat".
