The series starred Harry Hill, Al Murray, Burt Kwouk and Martin Hyder, and served as the predecessor for Hill's breakthrough television series, Harry Hill. BackgroundHill achieved his big breakthrough in August 1992, when he won the Perrier Award for Best Newcomer at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The show was commissioned shortly after he received the award. Fruit Corner ran for four series on BBC Radio 4. The first of these, in 1993, contained four episodes, but after the show's success, it returned for three further six episode runs in 1994, 1995 and 1997 respectively. The show acted as a springboard for Hill's television career, and his Channel 4 show, Harry Hill, was similar in style and structure to Fruit Corner. A compilation of the best material from Series 1 to 3 was released on audio CD and cassette on 2 October 1995.[1] SynopsisHill hosted the show as himself, and each week was joined by a number of characters, including his big brother Alan Hill (Al Murray), his three year old adopted son, Alan Hill Jr. (Matt Bradstock), his parents, Jan and Tony Hill, and his grandmother, Nana Hill. Latter series of the show often saw the family joined by Burt Kwouk. The show also enjoyed a variety of other celebrity guests across its run, including, most notably, Ronnie Corbett and Rolf Harris. The show used surreal humour as the base for many of its jokes, and its presentation was very conversational, with each item tending to involve one or more members of the family, and later on roping in other recurring characters such as scientist Finsbury Park (Steve Bowditch). Each programme was interspersed with surreal jokes from Harry, common ground for anyone familiar with his stand-up routines. EpisodesAs well as the regular actors featured on the show, Phil Jupitus and Soo Drouet appeared solely in the first series; Phil Nice and Brenda Gilhooly appeared in both the first and second; Joanna Brooks appeared solely in the second; and Peter Serafinowicz appeared solely in the fourth. Edna Doré starred in at least first and fourth series. Also, a permanent fixture in both the third and fourth series was Burt Kwouk, who appeared as a guest in series two, and liked it so much that he came back on a regular basis. The third series focused on the main cast, but still included other regular actors and celebrity guests.[2] {{col-start}}{{col-2}}Series 1 (1993)
