Here are all six episodes of the "BBC Radio 4" series, complete and uncut, from the winners of the Perrier Best Newcomer Award. Welcome to the surreal world of Zooniverse where two zookeepers Howard Moon (Julian Barratt) and Vince Noir (Noel Fielding) embark on an array of magical and bizarre adventures that include a trip to the Arctic tundra to find a lost egg, an expedition deep into the jungle and being trapped inside a hitchhiker's box. Feel the bracken, isolate the crisps and calm your llama down with some blue pants - this is a madcap style of music and mayhem which sounds mighty like The Boosh.

The Mighty Boosh (Radio Collection) (Radio Collection) Reviews
The show is amazing, I have season one and two and will have three as soon as I can. I don't really like it, but it's not bad. It's hard to listen without seeing the action, especially after seeing how awesome the show is. This basically their show, but the stories are a little combined or just slightly changed.
i love it so much im going to buy the radio series so i can take the boosh with me everywhere. lol. im actually in love with the mighty boosh. i saw the first series when it first started on bbc. and bought the box set as soon as it came out.once youve seen/heard a few i can pretty much guarentee you'll be hooked by the raw power of the boosh.plus the sheer style of vince noir and his hair is enough to sell it on its own. ^.^
Luckily, it showed again, after another rerun of Monty Python, and that time I had the presence of mind to check the title in the electronic guide. But listening to raps about the tundra and Cockney hitchhikers, songs about face-stealing monkeys, and mutants with a blackbird's head on a raven's torso (a subtle one, that one) makes this CD set a great buy. I watched the show whenever I could after that, and immediately bought the CDs of the radio series. I've got to tell you, it doesn't work quite so well on radio. And that, seeing the title, is what made me fall in love. But just as the opening credits were about to start, my cable went out, leaving me hopeless, not knowing the title of this hilarious show.
I found the television show on BBC America after an episode of Monty Python's Flying Circus.I saw two men in green jackets standing in front of a red curtain talking about ram's legs. The Mighty Boosh. Of course, I was instantly hooked. It's still completely charming and very funny, but you can't see Vince's facial expressions, or his hair, which to me is a key aspect of the show's greatness.
and buy the region 2 DVD of the first series from amazon.co.uk. You can actually download the second series from. whilst you can get the CDs, be warned that The Mighty Boosh has also been made into 2 TV series, and most hysterical they are, what with Mod Wolves and Colon Explorers. This IS the best UK comedy in years. [.]. Hey American Types,.
Howard on the other hand is a vain lad, who's hair is integral to the show. Fielding and Barratt make a fabulous double act, who if you allow into your life, will make it a better place. Though with all said, the humour is distinctivly British, with lots of refrences to Camden, Cockneys, Twix's and an array of all things British. The pair work in a run down zoo with only a 100 year old ape, a rock named Jesus and Tony the prawn. Howard is "a man of action" in his own words, a jazz maverick who spans the genres. All of which they come out of unscathed and with some hilarious outcome. But you need to hear the CD to understand all that.
Though, as you can see on the CD cover, it is fantastic. This is surreal British comedy at it's absolute best. The duo get into all kinds of shananagans, such as going to the Arctic, Being sentenced to death in a Jungle club and being trapped in a box by a cockney nutjob. He does novels, poetry, organises raffles etc.
Howard moon and Vince Noir are a pair of zookeepers. A great idea and 2 wayward genius's = The fuynniest thing to come out of England in 10 years.
Plus hilarious one liners which have to be heard to be belived. The zoo is run by an angry American, Bob Fossil, who basically shouts at Howard and Vince and puts bra's on monkeys.
The series is full of songs such about cockney hitchikers with solo polo vision and "Little Johnny Frostbite". Though that shouldn't put you off sampling a piece of this delightful taste of contemparary British comedy.
though the surreality might not be to everyones taste. This CD is possibly the best thing I have heard in years, after hearing odd episodes on BBC radio during my mid teens, I'm totally hooked, The boosh Radio series is one of the best investments you can make.
You can never seemingly grow tired of the boosh. If you're not a fan of other Brit comedys then perhaps it might not be for you.
