-creator of Dame Edna Everage but also expert on the ' Naughty 90s' or, as the French call it, ' La Belle Epoque.'

With a second showing of Toccata at the Plaza
Robin Richmond looks at the world of cinema organs now that their heyday has passed. He demonstrates how the organ accompanied silent movies and visits organ enthusiasts around the country who have installed these ' monsters ' in unlikely places, including a church, a car showroom and two in the living-room of a house in Northolt, and talks to them about their dedication to the preservation of these magnificent instruments.
