Undervalued national treasure
I was unaware of the radio programme series when originally broadcast but came across them later. Pam’s way of describing life and events in her inimitable way is so clever, managing to sum up all our emotions, experiences and hopes and dreams in verse. I’ve listened to the episodes multiple times and enjoy every one immensely.

Pam Ayres is pure heaven!
It started a bit 'Radio 4', twee and corny, but just got better and better. I wish there was a TV show with Pam, Gordon and Felicity.

Excellent
Gentle chat and poems interspersed with small skits by the three of them. Does not include the garden- centre shows.

Pam Ayres still great as ever!
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Sketches mixed with her poetry. What a Gem. Harsh and hilarious view on real life from the other side of "yoof"
