The £50 Cure" is an episode from "The Goon Show" that originally aired on February 23, 1959. This episode is the seventeenth and final show in the ninth series. Harry Secombe was absent for this show, and Kenneth Connor stood in for him.
The plot revolves around Kenneth Connor, who is suffering from "Advanced Poverty," a dreaded disease that, if unchecked, leads to bankruptcy and finally the Pauper's Krutt. The episode humorously explores the drastic medical measures taken to check this malignant malady, which would not be approved by the British Medical Association.
