Synopsis

The much-loved Radio 4 quiz show Just a Minute has been delighting listeners for over 46 years. According to BBC figures, 2.51 million listeners tune in every week0151—15.6% of the radio audience. The show's chairman, Nicholas Parsons, has featured in every single episode since it was first broadcast in December 1967. In this first and only official Just a Minute book, endorsed by the BBC, Nicholas will guide us through the highs and lows of Britain's longest-running radio comedy, reliving the funniest moments, re-introducing us to the exceptional panellists, old and new, genial and combative, and marvelling at the linguistic contortions that have held a captive audience for so long.
