Nodens Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Has anyone mentioned Beryl Reid, she always used to come on and say, in her Brummie accent, Good evenin' each oim Marleen, does anybody loik me earings? Didn't Wilfred Pickles once do a "Have A Go" from Bassets in the fifties? My mother was working there at that time. She used to bring home a large white packet of Allsorts every Friday night and we used to make ourselves sick woofing them down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floridablade Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I remember ITMA during the war, and then that Yorkshireman with a pianist who he always asked " give him the money " was it Barney, can't remember. Goon show where they had a band led by a blackman and he was down a coal mine and answered the phone " Coalface here " , laugh a minute they were. The BBC was a wonderful entertainment source and got us through the war, can't say much for them now they've reached the pits as far as I'm concerned, nothing but propaganda.
