''Beyond Our Ken'' (1958–1964) was a radio comedy programme, the predecessor to ''Round the Horne'' (1965–1968). Both programmes starred Kenneth Horne, Kenneth Williams, Hugh Paddick, Betty Marsden and Bill Pertwee, with announcer Douglas Smith. Musical accompaniment was provided by the BBC Revue Orchestra. The name is a pun on Kenneth Horne's name and the (now mainly Northern English and Scots) word ''ken'', meaning "knowledge or perception". ==Background== Eric Merriman had previously written material for Kenneth Horne on ''Henry Hall's Guest Night'' and ''Variety Playhouse'' and written some stand-up comedy material for Barry Took. In June 1957 the BBC Radio Variety department asked Merriman to come up with an idea for a radio series starring Horne. Merriman devised a format for the show with the working title ''Don't Look Now''. The original memo on the subject still exists in the BBC archives. The proposal was for a solo comedy series based on a formula of a fictional week in the life of Kenneth Horne. Other memos from the BBC archive show how the proposed format evolved and the discussion of alternative titles (including ''Around the Horne'').
