"To our delight, people who were in nappies when Miss Gingold was in Sweet and Low, or evacuated while Miss Baddeley carried on - outrageously - in London laughed a great deal and seemed somewhat astonished that we old fogies did, said, and wrote such things in those far-off days."
So wrote Alan Melville introducing the second series of Before the Fringe on BBC-2 last year. And now people who missed the programmes can see them in the next six weeks.
