Hell

Episode 1 of 3

4 Extra Debut. Gerald Scarfe with scavenged ±«Óãtv archive clips rebuilt into something new and unpredictable on the theme of Hell. From 2014.

Welcome to the chopped up, looped up, sped up world of Recycled Radio, old ±«Óãtv broadcasts turned into something new.

Cartoonist Scarfe scavenges round his studio for depictions of the fiery realms of Satan, Hades and Mephistopheles, otherwise known as Recycled Hell.

This is the archive hour at breakneck speed, and our journey to the underworld makes surprising visits to both Glastonbury and Heathrow Terminal 5. Expect to hear from Dante, Milton and Eddie Mair, along with Tony Blair, Melvyn Bragg and Germaine Greer.

Fun, silly, thoughtful radio about a place that exerts an enormous grip on the imagination of people everywhere.

Producer: Miles Warde.

First broadcast on ±«Óãtv Radio 4 in August 2014.
