And Rank, who distributed the film, were later to become 'Rank Bush Murphy'.
The film was released in March 1956, but I have the feeling that Radio Shows were held in October. So this could have been an imagined Radio Show of the future. Just the thing to drum up business. Who knows if similar crazy events, as seen in the film, might happen if you attended the real Radio Show! (Source of some of the above info: Wikipedia.) Steve |

Mr Hill provides indicators of the comedy routines which he later refined at Thames.
The mock up show has an interesting section where pictures from a camera were displayed across a range of TVs probably fed from a common low power transmitter. It was creditable that the film cameras were run at 25fps to avoid flicker on the off screen shots. |

I'm sure there was a mention of the filming of the mock-up in a Practical TV magazine of the time.
