Quando, Quando, Quando: A BBC Radio 4 Sitcom

All six episodes of the fashionable comedy set in a top London hair salon, starring Rainer Hersch, Mark Maier and Catherine Tate

Quando, Quando, Quando is Clapham’s premier hairdressing establishment, where brothers Rene, Carlo and Charlie Quando cleverly clip, chop and crimp their lucky clients into shape. With three floors, 200 pairs of scissors and more mirrors than the Palace of Versailles, it’s truly a cut above – but all is not well at this emporium of excellence...

When the President of Uruguay arrives for his annual trim, the stylists struggle to avoid mentioning his enormous head – and when the salon is swamped by kids with nits, the result is itchy pandemonium. The Quandos also run into trouble with the racketeering Fish brothers; have their secret formula stolen by spies; face matrimonial mayhem with their two-cuts-for-one wedding deal and are forced to take extreme measures when the Christmas rush gets out of control...

Written and performed by Rainer Hersch and Mark Maier, this hair-larious sitcom also stars Catherine Tate and Stephen Greif, with a special guest appearance from Nicholas Parsons.
