Publisher's Synopsis
Four specially selected episodes of the much-loved BBC Radio 4 panel game chaired by Nicholas Parsons, showcasting the talents of Sheila Hancock. Loved for the verbal dexterity, wicked wit and competitive edge of its participants, 'Just a Minute' has welcomed scores of guest players to the game since it began in 1967. Sheila Hancock first appeared on the second ever show, and since then she has become one of the most popular and long-standing contestants. This collection presents four classic episodes featuring Sheila as she uses her warmth, wit and ingenuity in the course of the game. With episodes taken from the 1970s, 1980s and 2000s, she displays her talent for wordplay and ear for a good anecdote as she tackles subjects as diverse as Uncle Tom Cobley, excuses, the greatest woman who ever lived and things you should never do on a train.
