on BBC Two England

The last of six programmes
Inspired by the antics of a Dame in panto, he was introduced to a stage career with a dancing part in the chorus. After a number of successes in Musicals and Revues he found lasting fame on radio with Arthur Askey in "Band Waggon", Kenneth Horne in "Much Binding in the Marsh" and enjoyed a long partnership with Deryck Guyler in "The Men from the Ministry".
With funny songs and amusing anecdotes he recalls some of the more interesting aspects of show business life, in a long and distinguished career.
Recorded at the Malvern Festival Theatre
