The Players production of ‘Radio Days! played to a capacity audience
on May 19th at The Dolphin Hotel. The audience was able to enjoy ‘Dick
Barton – Special Agent’, with some very misogynist comments from
Dick himself and the delights of ‘Julian and Sandy’ from ‘Round the
Horne’ An evening about 1950’s radio couldn’t pass without a mention
of ‘The Archers’ and Dan and Doris had a difficult time when the heifers
got out and additional problems with a very noisy dog! The comedy
continued with a double dose of ‘The Goon Show’ which showcased
the Players talents for a range of silly voices. A contribution form Tony
Hancock was an additional bonus.
The evening was further enhanced with some delightful songs of the
time from Fay Churchill and some traditional ‘rock and roll’ from the
resident ‘House Band’ which really had the whole place jumping.
