Count Arthur Strong
‘The Man Behind The Smile’.
Fresh from the continued success of his BBC Radio 4 comedy series and recent run at the 2008 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Count Arthur Strong, showbiz legend and raconteur, reminds us just what we've been missing since his last television series, 'The Robin Hood Club’, was axed in 1960 something.
As Arthur himself says, "Wouldn't it be wonderful if you could just turn the telly on after a hard day at the abattoir...or whatever it is you do... and there I was, smiling back at you, in my own programme again, again.”
***** THE MIRROR 14/08/2008
Forever the nearly man of show business and an expert mangler of words, Count Arthur is nothing less than wonderful…One of the greatest comic creations of this century, Count Arthur is compulsory viewing.

Malapropisms, spoonerisms, tall stories and archive footage meticulously stitched together…
It is an immaculate performance.
