Summary

All 10 episodes of the dark, surreal comedy featuring Matt Berry's twisted regression therapist.

Unorthodox, unpredictable and verging on the unprofessional, Dr Berry is a deeply disturbing hypnotherapist. His experimental regressive technique is both strange and terrifying and involves taking unsuspecting clients on unsettling journeys through their subconscious.

Each episode sees him dealing with a patient who needs treatment for a particular problem. There's Karen House-Water, who's aquaphobic (and therefore afraid of half her own name); Ray Highknock, a smoking addict who wants to kick the habit; a pair of East End twins with unexpected past lives; and a man who's scared of everything about cats (including the musical).

As the doctor puts them into a trance, we take a trip into the deepest recesses of their minds, experiencing alongside them the dreamlike - or nightmare-like - situations that their brains (and Dr Berry) have created. But as they're faced with talking dolphins, an interplanetary voyage, the inside of a whale and the God of Thunder, they soon realise that the cure could be worse than the disease....

Brilliantly bizarre and an ideal late-night listen, this dark, Lynch-meets-Kaufman-style series won the 2012 Writers' Guild Award for Best Radio Comedy. It stars Matt Berry (Toast of London, The IT Crowd) as Dr Berry, with a stellar cast including Katherine Parkinson, Simon Greenall, Morgana Robinson, Bob Mortimer, Steve Pemberton and Daisy Haggard.

Classic Berry

A simple premise well executed. Clever word play and absurd comedy make a winning combo.

My inner monologue

Is Matt Barry in this, I wish. Brilliantly crafted and played. Loved it all, non sequitur heaven.

Matt Berry is a national treasure

He must be protected at all costs. I smiled and laughed throughout this, glad to hear familiar voices and the typical surreal humour he has become known for, Matt Berry fans will not regret choosing this.

what's not to love?

Surreal humour and weird ideas. That's how you forget whatever was bothering you before you started listening. Therapy for the blues.

It's brilliant. Starts off strong.

Some laugh out louds to begin with then he meanders into the more surreal. Really good sound design. Lots of great actors. Have it!

I Love Matt Berry!

This is an absolute scream. I have listened entirely 4 times since I bought the title last week and it's brilliant and very funny. Typical Matt Berry...everything he does makes me laugh and this is no exception. If you love Toast then you will love this.

Fantastic stuff. Berry at his best.

If you dig Matt Berry in toast of London then this is perfect. Wild imagination combined with funny pronunciation and clever story lines.
