"Old Harry’s Game" Hell’s sharpest comedy returns—philosophy, satire, and eternal punishment collide

Classic Old Time Radio, vintage radio shows, the Golden Age of radio, BBC Radio, murder, mystery, drama, comedy, sci-fi, westerns. BBC Radio’s "Old Harry’s Game – Series 3" In Series 3 of *Old Harry’s Game*, Hell’s resident demon, Satan, continues his sardonic reign over the underworld, grappling with the absurdities of human nature and the bureaucratic chaos of eternal damnation. This season introduces new souls to torment—including a self-righteous archbishop and a smug advertising executive—while Satan himself wrestles with philosophical dilemmas and existential boredom. The comedy sharpens as moral hypocrisy and historical revisionism collide in fiery, laugh-out-loud exchanges. Andy Hamilton’s writing remains razor-sharp, blending dark satire with surprisingly poignant reflections on ethics, legacy, and the human condition. With each episode, the show deepens its exploration of what makes people tick—and what lands them in Hell—with wit that’s both biting and oddly humane. Series 3 is a masterclass in radio comedy that turns damnation into delicious entertainment.
