This six-part series won the [http://www.chortle.co.uk/news/oct01/boosh2.html Douglas Adams Award] for innovative comedy writing, an award which was created to honour this specific series and has not been awarded since. The set is available from the BBC onAudio CD , titled "The Mighty Boosh". The plots to all the episodes except "Stolen" were reworked extensively and reused in the first TV series.The Mighty Boosh returned to radio again on
22 October 2004 , when they did a comedy special for "The Breezeblock ", a show onBBC Radio 1 . Instead of the plot driven nature of the series, this show featured improvised conversational comedy with Barratt, Fielding and Fulcher, combined with the show's usual mix of electronic music.List of episodes
