A six-part series in which Geoffrey Wheeler visits variety theatres around the country.
2: An affectionate portrait of the Pavilion theatre in Glasgow, one of the last variety venues in Scotland.
Built in 1895 by the architect Bertie Crewe , the Pavilion boasts a magnificent ceiling which rolls back to reveal the stars, and is watched over- or so they say - by the ghost of one of its best-loved comedians, Tommy Morgan. Amongthose recalling their days at the Pavilion are Johnny Beattie , Rikki Fulton and Mary Lee Milroy. Producer Libby Cross
