Absoloubtly brilliant, was listening to this on the train on the way to work and had to keep stifling my laughs for fear of looking like a right twonk. Very original, Billy Turner is a thief!!! lol.
Extraordinary. Very original and delightfully written. I should imagine a lot of fun was had making this. Well done chaps! And thanks to Stephen Fry for directing our attention towards it.
i was heading on my way to the light when my beloved put this on my iPod, now the dilemma keep going to the light or come back, so i came back. After that sacrifice please make some more, please
i want more! i know you have them! When do we get it?. P.s love the music as the begining, such a nod to Number Stations right? One of the characters in a novel im writing is obsessed with number stations. Thanks for introcuding me to that oddness Robert
This is so funny!! I have listened to it over and over. Loved ‘How did you die?’ and the background music. Great atmosphere throughout. Good to know that headlice get to reach the kingdom in the sky. More please!!!
Thank the dear sweet Gore for the invention of electronic media that can say dirty words in my ear while I work! My poor grandpa had to spend 12 hours in a railroad station only to be rewarded by the sad overpacked closet of Fibber McGee and Molly. Hooray for the future! Hooray for Popper and Serafinowicz!
A small ghostly boy-child told me this charming joke today: “What’s a haunted chicken? A poultry-geist!” I explained to him the reason why this did not work and argued over the bewildering image of a ‘haunted chicken’. The boy-child now knows he is fated to be dead and socially disappointing for all eternity.
I love the way Popper and Serafinowicz pay so much attention to the technical details. Very geeky, but production values-related comedy is really hilarious if you ask me. Seems to be some weird slow phaser on this podcast…
I agree. It’s the same with their series ‘Look around you’. Sometimes the funniest element is in the tiny details that you may not pick up the first time round.
Definitely two of the finest comedians of our time. Love their work – can’t wait for more.
By the way, Peter’s twitter feed is also hilarious – check it out.
Genius!
Please put this on iTunes as a podcast for those of us too moronic and with too short attention spans to save to disk and import. Especially if you’re doing more.
I have been in a coma for almost 14 months now. And I just thought I’d let you both know that all of us currently ‘in limbo’ very much enjoyed the last show and hope to hear more very soon! It really is a hearty reminder that no matter how things turn out, we’ll be in good company. Thank you.
many thanks again

P.S If things were to take a turn for the worst, I’d love to maybe participate in the ‘How did you die?’ segment.
This is brilliant. I’m not sure what your plans are for it, but surely a series beckons. I’d buy it from ITunes etc. would love to hear it on’t radio. Fun.
Terrrriffic and just a tad bit sinister. Wouldn’t expect anything less. And thanks for solving a few of those mysteries that had us sleepless for so many decades.
DEAD funny guys, love your new HAUNT! I was COFFIN with laughter! You don’t have a GHOST of a chance of topping this, but please give us MORGUE! OUIJAst can’t wait for the next one!
Christmas has come and gone and no gift from you (new podcast)! Sad…
MORE PLEASE!
This is just so funny – what an incredible idea.
But is Brian Butterfield really dead? Noooooooooo!!!!!
when your dead do you need to go a poos or a widdle?
is there any ghost food?
bye
i laughed and laughed and laughed until i stopped and then began crying.
sweet buttery biscuits, please make some more of these!
Fantastic. Our own room, with all of your ancestors stretching back 5, 600 years, all in one room for eternity. I love you.
Absolutely freaking awesome. I LOVED this.
Now please. Make some more.
listened to this so many times! make another episode please!
An incredibly original and funny show. I can’t masturbate without wondering who in the afterlife is watching me and if they are judging my weight.
Genius. Can’t wait for further installments.
Absoloubtly brilliant, was listening to this on the train on the way to work and had to keep stifling my laughs for fear of looking like a right twonk. Very original, Billy Turner is a thief!!! lol.
Excellent.
Best radio I’ve heard in years! And I l bloody work in it!
Nearly crashed my car three times laughing.
Just off for a sax lesson…
Did you know I was born on September 11th? I celebrate with a small cake so people don’t think I’m a Muslim extremist.
I can’t wait to die.
I loved look around you and love this even more! You guys are funny.
How did I die?
I choked on a spider in my sleep…
Extraordinary. Very original and delightfully written. I should imagine a lot of fun was had making this. Well done chaps! And thanks to Stephen Fry for directing our attention towards it.
This is friggin’ GREAT! Please tell me that there are more episodes to come.
i was heading on my way to the light when my beloved put this on my iPod, now the dilemma keep going to the light or come back, so i came back. After that sacrifice please make some more, please

How did you die?
Really very funny indeed. Keep up the good work. You’re a right funny pair of fuckers.
Top drawer stuff; far better than most of the “comedy” currently on BBC Radio 4; keep it up you splendid chapsburys. Thanks MacUstinov: ThUstinov.

what the hell? I just went to see my comment and I don’t remember writing that – I’m sure I said something else. This place is suitably creepy

Totally, totally awesome! This deserves to be on national radio (if it isn’t already). Best thing I’ve heard in ages!
Very funny.
This was fantastic! I am dialing 00000414042203177002029990746166042308008888!
I liked this alot – please do more! I like the weird & ghostly atmosphere of it. The projects you both do together always come out good

That was amazing! Nothing beats hearing the spirit of Biggie Smalls promote a short-wave radio program!
The ‘How did you die…’ section made me do a laugh/snort on Orpington station.
I wont sue. But I did look like a prannet.
Drat! Missed the phone number.
Genius!

Brilliant, loved the “presented by Princess Di and Hitler” bit.
Genius stuff! P***ing myself!!!

Very Funny, very funny
Brilliantly funny!
I’m dead thank you how are you ? love it.

Liking Ug Ug’s work
VERY VERY FUNNY!
The Sadam Hussein and Hitler bits especially, something about dead dictators in funny situations, really tickles me!
more please!
Original. Brilliantly made. Hilarious. This is one of the best things i’ve heard in years.
As a ghost, I can honestly say this is the best radio show since the spirit sex change program ‘Trans-Parent with Jim-Mitzy.’
As a ghost, I can honestly say that this is the best afterlife radio show since the spirit sex change program ‘Trans-Parent with Jim-Mitzy’.
It’s sick humour and therefore I applaud you once again fools x
This is brilliant. I’m not sure what your plans are for it, but surely a series beckons. I’d buy it from ITunes etc. would love to hear it on’t radio. Fun.
Fabulous,Death’s not so bad after all!
“I can’t wait till Phil Collins dies”
Best thing since the net began.
I cannot tell you how much I love this so I won’t.
So so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so funny!!
Loved it. A lot
This makes me very happy…and laugh!
Very funny, I enjoyed it a lot. Please make some more.

Excellent stuff guys. Look forward to more.
Thants.
Quite good. I smiled out loud.
Splendid stuff… wasn’t sure how it would stand up outside the Shunt Vaults, but it does it very well. Good show RPS.
Wonderful. Delightfully clever. Spiffing!
“…and the f-word: fuck” HAHAHAHAHAHAAAA…
Genius, thanks so much for this.
Genius.
Yay! I’ve been “dying” to hear this again!
This is frightening.
I nearly choked to death laughing at the “how did you die?” part. Hey, then I could’ve been here: “I died listening to this show”
Biggie Smalls shout out = genius, sheer genius!
Terrrriffic and just a tad bit sinister. Wouldn’t expect anything less. And thanks for solving a few of those mysteries that had us sleepless for so many decades.
Smashing stuff!
you surely don’t have any time to write a 30 minute show… you’re both too busy twittering!
Not Funny! I am dead and I find this programme offensive. it is insulting to all who reside in the afterlife. Grow up.
Enjoyed it very much. Make it a regular podcast and put it on iTunes!
I also heartily approve of this endeavour. I particularly appreciated the clarification around the F word.
Fantastic.
Brilliant stuff. You guys make me so happy:)
’twas very funny! and as Danny said, Keep them coming! x
I’m feeling quite peckish now…might try some infected faeces
i can’t believe that’s not actually NOTORIOUS BIG. amazing.
this radio show recalls the contractual obligation/matching tie python albums.
x
Brilliant. I hope there’s more to come.
Shakespeare interview had me in stitches!
“How did you die?” “My death wasn’t as elaborate as yours… I just burned to death in a house fire!”
Quirky stuff! Love it!
Excellent!
DEAD funny guys, love your new HAUNT! I was COFFIN with laughter! You don’t have a GHOST of a chance of topping this, but please give us MORGUE! OUIJAst can’t wait for the next one!
