George Cole stars in the classic BBC Radio sitcom about a bashful, bumbling bachelor

First broadcast in 1953, A Life of Bliss ran for six series and 118 episodes on radio, concluding in 1969 when a TV series was made. Sadly, most are missing from the BBC archive (including the first seven, starring David Tomlinson) - but 19 were rescued and rebroadcast by BBC Radio 4 Extra, and are included here.

They chronicle the misadventures of shy, absent-minded bachelor David Bliss, who goes through life with his head in the clouds and his mind in a fog. His friends and family agree that it's high time he settled down, but it's hard to find the right girl - though he's sure she'll come along sooner or later. Perhaps pretty Penny Gay will fit the bill - or Maxine, or Zoe...

In the meantime, he's happy to live the single life: though he does keep finding himself in awkward situations. Fortunately, his sister Anne and brother-in-law Tony are around to provide support and encouragement - and he can always rely on his best friend, faithful canine companion Psyche.

Created by Godfrey Harrison, who went on to write TV scripts for Tony Hancock, this delightfully light comedy stars George Cole as Bliss, with Diana Churchill as Anne, Colin Gordon as Tony and Percy Edwards as Psyche the Dog. Among the guest stars are Petula Clark, Desmond Carrington and Donald Sinden.

Petula Clark is a singer, actress and performer who has had the longest career of any British entertainer, spanning over eight decades. She first broke into the limelight as a child during WWII, singing to the troops on wartime radio and in concert, and then making many movies. After a string of hit records in the UK in the 50s, Petula followed her heart, and future husband Claude Wolff, to France, where she became that countrys most popular female vocalist, before going truly global when she topped the charts in the US in 1965 with Downtown. She has sold an estimated 100 million records globally and won two Grammy awards.

Petula has starred in Hollywood movies such as Finian's Rainbow alongside Fred Astaire and British film classic such as Goodbye, Mr. Chips, with Peter O'Toole. Her stage work on both sides of the Atlantic includes long-running, critically acclaimed performances in The Sound of Music and Sunset Boulevard. She was awarded a CBE in 1998 for her services to music and drama and she continues to perform.

She lives in Geneva and London. This is her first, and only, book. As she says: Never again!
