Does The Team Think : FLAC : High Quality

Jimmy Edwards

Does The Team Think? A comedy panel game for radio, featuring chairman McDonald Hobley and chief panellist Jimmy Edwards , in which members of the studio audience ask the questions, and a team of four celebrities try to come up with unscripted but whimsical answers. By tradition, questions put to the panel were usually posed in the form 'Does the team think...?' A parody of Any Questions , it was played for laughs and ran for nearly twenty years. Somewhat akin to the later television series Jokers Wild , the four celebrity panellists were usually comedians, who spent the half-hour trying to out-gag each other. Each edition features a celebrity guest , who makes a brief appearance half way through to also put a question to the team. Devised by Jimmy Edwards, who was also the sole regular panellist, the show ran on the Light Programme from 1957 until 1976, and thereafter enjoyed repeats until 1989, whereupon it vanished from the airwaves entirely, never to be heard again.
