Harry Welchman , celebrated for his good looks and voice and the ease of his acting, added to his considerable fame as a leading man in musical shows by creating the part of Colonel Belovar in that stirring play, The Lady of the Rose, when it was produced at Daly's in 1922. Thanks largely to the artistry of his performance and that of Phyllis Dare as Mariana (a part now to be taken by Sylvia Marriott ) The Lady of the Rose ran for 514 performances.

This Man is News itself makes a good news story, for the authors of this film, Allan Mackinnon and Roger Macdougall , were young students of Glasgow University who arrived in London in search of a career, wrote the scenario, and achieved success in this first film. But it was broadcasting that gave them their first chance of script-writing, and it was natural that. this popular film should be adapted by them for radio presentation, the broadcast raking place in February of last year. Both film and wireless fans will be glad to renew acquaintance with this fast-moving Fleet-Street story of murder in Soho.
