This is a Global Player original podcast.

This is LBC from Global, leading Britain's conversation, Mystery Hour with James O'Brien.

Three minutes after, so there's a time, good Lord, mystery hour is upon us already well i i kind of knew that

i told you five minutes ago didn't i um if you're not familiar with this part of the program i should

warn you it's rather different from the other 14 hours of the week that we could potentially

spend together 15 of course if you include the podcast um more than that i suppose if you know

me socially i invite you to ring me with a question a a who, or why, a what, a win, a win, a when, a wood, I'll start again. I'll put my teeth in and try again. Thank you, Keith. You ring me with a question, a who or why, a what, a when, a weather, a whither or a wherefore. Not a weather, a whither. Even the occasional wence. And someone else then rings in with the answer.

It may not sound particularly exciting, but it is, I promise you.

Somewhere between those two points,

that the question is asked and the question is answered, the magic occurs.

The magic is in the margins. The magic's always in the margins, isn't it?

And if you don't believe me, well, there's only one way to find out whether I'm telling the truth.

It gets better.

My favourite contributor of the week will win a Mystery Hour game.

There are now two Mystery Hour games.

So successful is this radio feature that has spawned not one, count them, but two.

Individual separate freestanding games.

One, a traditional board game.

One, a travel game.

It's in a tin.

You can pick, actually, which one you would prefer.

Find out more about both of the Mystery Hour games at mystery hour.com.
