Nicknamed 'Stinker', Murdoch became a household name through the popular radio series Band Waggon with Arthur Askey. Their humour was a forerunner of much radio comedy to come in the 1940s and later, including ITMA (It's That Man Again) and Hancock's Half Hour, and was a strong influence on many developing comedy scriptwriters. Together with Kenneth Horne, Richard Murdoch created and starred in the long-running, much-loved radio comedy series Much-Binding-in-the-Marsh (1944-54). Murdoch's other well-known radio programmes included The Men from the Ministry (1961-77).
