The Patrick and Maureen Maybe Music Experience was a radio situation comedy, initially broadcast on BBC Radio 4. It starred Patrick Barlow and Imelda Staunton (who had previously worked together in a TV sitcom, Is It Legal? in 1996) as the bickering hosts of their own radio program. The show was written by Patrick Barlow, who is also the creator of the National Theatre of Brent, in which he, in his alter ego of Desmond Olivier Dingle, serves as artistic director and chief actor.

Patrick and Maureen Maybe (Barlow and Staunton) are the hosts of their own radio program: The Patrick and Maureen Maybe Music Experience. Patrick is a husband with a roving eye, his wife Maureen is insanely jealous, and the guests who visit their programme are invariably humiliated and/or in tears by the end of the evening.
