By: John Lloyd, Dan Schreiber, Richard Turner

Narrated by: full cast, John Lloyd

The Museum of Curiosity is BBC Radio 4's monumental comedy edifice, and the only one with gargoyles in the foyer. It allows nothing inside that doesn't make you scratch your head, stroke your chin or, at the very least, go 'hmm'. Fortunately, helping to fill its vacant plinths is a gathering of the world's most original minds. 

Among the guests bearing donations to the museum in these 25 episodes are Neil Gaiman, Sarah Millican, Clive James, Kate Adie, Sir Terry Pratchett, Ronni Ancona, Jon Ronson, Bettany Hughes, Ben Elton, Francesca Stavrakopoulou, Alain de Botton, Charlotte Uhlenbroek, Alistair Fothergill, Ruth Padel, Jonathan Miller, Lucie Green, Marcus du Sautoy, Sara Wheeler, Brian Eno, Shappi Khorsandi, John Hodgman, Chris Addison, Roger Law, Tim Minchin, Philip Pullman, Richard Wiseman, Victoria Finlay, Simon Singh, Jimmy Carr, Graham Linehan, Sarah Bakewell, Robin Ince, David Eagleman, Natalie Haynes, Brian Blessed, Alan Davies, Gareth Edwards, Martha Reeves, Harry Enfield, Helen Scales, Admiral Alan West and many more. 

In addition to all the episodes from the first four series, a previously unbroadcast pilot episode, The Professor of Curiosity, is also included. Running time: 12 hours approx. 

Audio updated as of August 2018.

Not sure how I feel about this one

This is somewhat of a spinoff of the awesome QI show and that's the problem as much as I enjoyed the show, it does come off as QI Lite and I haven't decided if that's a bad thing or not.

So much fun!

For anyone with a modicum of curiosity about anything this radio show is funny, enlightening and absolutely charming!!

best of british humor

what a recording. the best comedians with fascinating guests sharing esoteric facts make this a big hit.

if you enjoy mock the week or quite interesting you'll love this.

Bill Bailey, Sean Locke, Brian Blessed, Jimmy Carr, Alan Davies, the editor of Viz Magazine, the creator behind Spitting Image, Ben Elton... the list goes on and on.

well worth the credits.

Very interesting stuff

Enlightening and entertaining, on a broad range of topics, from scientists, writers,, historians, and entertainers. etc...
