Mine's an Arf

on BBC Radio 4 FM

Marc Riley presents a tribute to Albert Modley, one of the almost-forgotten names of northern comedy in the 1930s, 40s and 50s, who in his day was as famous as his contemporaries Al Read, Frank Randle and Norman Evans. Playwright Alan Bennett, film director Stephen Frears and TV producer William G Stewart are among those who recall their experiences of working with Modley.
