Little Willie Saves the Day
The Daily Sketch slams boring Auntie. Will DG John Brown agree to light entertainment shows? Stars Graham Crowden. From September 1994.
Back to the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's early wireless days of 1922.
The Daily Sketch says the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's programmes are boring. Will DG John Brown finally agree to broadcast some light entertainment, or will his peccadillo with Auntie Phyllis force him over the edge? Either way, Fred "Keep 'Em Laughing" Hicks has got an unusual new act for radio.
Written by Jimmy Perry, the man behind Dad's Army and Hi-De-Hi.
