I Think the Nurses are Stealing My Clothes: The Very Best of Linda Smith by Edited By Warren Lakin
A never-before-heard collection of archive recordings of the wit and wisdom of Linda Smith - a 'national treasure' of Radio 4 and BBC TV. Links narrated by Hattie Hayridge.
'Linda Smith's everyday conversation contained more jokes than most comedy scripts and more social comment than most dramas' * INDEPENDENT *
'One of the best-loved and funniest voices on radio.' * EVENING STANDARD *
'The funniest woman I have ever known.' * SIMON HOGGART *
'The many tributes last week describing the late Linda Smith as one of the funniest women in Britain have got it wrong. Linda was simply one of the funniest people in Britain and her gifts were such that most of the time, listening to her thoughtful, provocative, casually brilliant one-liners, you forgot she was a woman. I mean that in the best way, the same way that when you read Margaret Atwood or Zadie Smith, you are not conscious of reading a 'lady novelist'.' * STEPHANIE MERRIT, OBSERVER *
