The Story of Radio Comedy
This week Russell Davies is deeply entrenched in the humour born of the pressures and privations of the Second World War. Stainless Stephen,
Billy Bennett and Jack Warner gathered round microphones in the provinces. Hence - Garrison Theatre ,
Happidrome and, with some help from the Allies, Hi Gang!
Written and compiled by RUSSELL DAVIES
Producer NEIL CARGILL
(First broadcast on Radio 4)
