To Porterhouse College, Cambridge, famous for rowing, low academic standards. and a proud cuisine, comes a new Master, an ex-grammar-school boy, demanding Firsts, women students, a self-service canteen, and a slot-machine for contraceptives. There is considerable opposition to this challenge to the established order, in the form of Skullion, the intransigent porter at Porterhouse, who is determined that the hallowed traditions of the College will never change.©2014 Audible, Inc.

Porterhouse Blue hilarious

This made me giggle out loud, and had some excellent characters and bizarre situations. A must for any red-brick enthusiast, or someone who just wants to hear about condoms floating out of a chimney! Funny characters, clever skits and well worth a listen. Very well read as well, the voices were perfectly captured.

Witty and sparkling
