Manufactured Bands

Mitch is still trying to prove he's the best musical satirist in the world (or at the very least on Radio 4 Extra).

After all, you can't manufacture greatness. Not with the current cloning regulations anyway.

But Mitch's nemesis, satirical stalwart Richard Stilgoe, is about to strike back. Has Robin Ince gone over to the dark side?

Mitch Benn continues his journey through the showbiz glitz and backstage litter of pop music.

With:

Robert Ince
Alfie Joey
Tash Baylis
Kirsty Newton

Special guest: Richard Stilgoe

Producer: Adam Bromley

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in March 2004.
