Devised by Douglas Young
A fast-moving laugh-vehicle not run on the usual lines with Flora Ashe, Cyril Fletcher, Nan Kenway, Douglas Young

'Trolley-Bus' takes you all over the place, stopping-here and there-to pick up titbits of life, which it puts down at your doorstep

Musical arrangements by Murray Richards

This is the first of a new fortnightly series featuring some old friends of the air.

Nan Kenway hails from Sydney, and her first Variety venture on coming to England was to join Ronald Frankau's 'Cabaret Kittens'. Later, when playing with Will Seymour's 'Bubbles' concert party at Newquay, she met Douglas Young and married him the year afterwards.
Douglas Young worked in the City, and on a newspaper, before taking up stage work. He writes everything that he and Nan Kenway do.
Flora Ashe is a fairly newcomer to the microphone, but has done a great deal of concert and musical-comedy work.
Cyril Fletcher is a well-known radio entertainer and has spent the last few summers with the Fol-de-Rols.
