Greasy Spoon Cafe, Fifties Nostalgia

The Light Programme.

"The Young Eamonn Andrews of Dublin" as he was billed in the Radio Times. Made his BBC debut as Question Master of Ignorance Is Bliss - a 'brainless Brains Trust' starring (left to right) Harold Berens, Gladys Hay and Michael Moore.

One of the great double acts of the day, much in the style of Abbot and Costello. Jimmy Jewell and Ben Warris, seen below with Harold Berens as 'Luigi' and Eric Phillips as 'Dude'.
