About Balham
- Balham became famous throughout Britain in 1958 when Peter Sellers recorded a comedy sketch called "Balham — Gateway to the South", which parodied the style of a travel documentary and described the area in the manner of an exotic foreign destination. The sketch, which was written by Frank Muir and Denis Norden, became one of the most celebrated comedy recordings of the era and gave Balham a cultural identity that has endured ever since.
