He has broadcast on four other organs: that in the Regal, Torquay, the BBC Theatre Organ, a private organ in Somerset, and the church organ in St. Marychurch Parish Church, Torquay.
Only twenty-eight today, he was the youngest of the four organists who opened the BBC Theatrp Organ at St. George's Hall, London, on October 20, 1936. In his six years of broadcasting he has made his signature tune, ' Oh, Mr. Porter ' as famous as his name, and receives fan-mail letters from all over the world.
