Welcome to the GSPS in this special
"Anniversary Year".
Yes folks !
28th May 2011 marked the 60th Anniversary of
the very first Goon Show.
On that auspicious day back in 1951 the very first episode was broadcast.
To celebrate this momentous occasion we
arranged a Special Goons Day in London.

Update:
Dear All,
We have just received very sad news of one of our most enthusiastic members, who was also a major contributor to the Newsletter. Mike Brown died yesterday, Dec 3, in what appears to have been a domestic accident. He was aged 65. The news has come as a complete shock since Mike was understood to have enjoyed fine physical and mental health.
He will be remembered for his bloodhound's skill at tracking down Goon and Hancock-related celebrities for interviews, and for writing in-depth articles about a range of figures from Edward Lear and the Marx Brothers to Eric Sykes and John Antrobus. Needless to say, Mike loved the work he did for us, and his passing is a great loss to the GSPS. Our deepest condolences go out to his family.
Yours sincerely,
John Repsch
