King's Lynn

Mark Steel's in Town

Mark Steel returns to Radio 4 with the ninth series of his award-winning show that travels around the country visiting towns that have nothing in common but their uniqueness. After thoroughly researching each town, Mark writes and performs a bespoke evening of comedy for the local residents.

In this episode Mark visits King's Lynn.

King's Lynn has an apostrophe. And a river. And a traffic island full of rabbits. Mark has a delightful trip on a ferry.

And the Queen often visits the town on her way to Sandringham.

Written and performed by Mark Steel Additional material by Pete Sinclair Production co-ordinator, Hayley Sterling Sound Manager, Jerry Peal Producer, Carl Cooper

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in January 2019.
