Albert and Me is a British radio series that had a pilot and eight episodes in 1977, and another eight episodes in 1983. The 17 half-hour-long episodes were broadcast on BBC Radio 2. It starred Richard Beckinsale and Pat Coombs. Richard Beckinsale played Bryan Archer who was a single parent struggling to find a job and to bring up his child with the help of his mother played by Pat Coombs (who also played baby Albert).
Albert and Me returned in 1983, after more than five years on hiatus. As Richard Beckinsale had died in 1979, Robert Lindsay assumed the lead role for the second series.
The writer was Jim Eldridge. BBC Radio 4 Extra has run repeats of the show in recent times.
