The Archive Hour: Mad about the Boy

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

When they first met in 1917, Noël Coward was "mad about" Ivor Novello and aspired to achieve the same glamorous lifestyle. The two became great friends and seven years later Noël too made it to the rarefied atmosphere of fame, fortune and stardom. Using the anecdotes of their friends and colleagues, Kit Hesketh-Harvey traces the story of their intertwined careers. Producer Catherine McGhee
