The Best Of The Best - On The Air!

In this all-new edition of Attaboy Clarence, we're celebrating the return of summer with music from Frank Sinatra and more.

Reviews of two movies - a sports drama about a very famous bunch of trick-shot specialists, plus a turn-of-the-century musical romance about music piracy!

Special guest Lilly Ramin joins the show as we both discuss our top five favourite ever episodes of Golden Age radio entertainment.

And, let's hear one of the classics we discuss, courtesy of Academy Award Theater

The Dreamy Team

In this episode of Attaboy Clarence...

We're in the company of Britain's answer to Fred & Ginger - the duo who lifted the hearts of a nation, and who, to this day, hold a very impressive box-office record - Anna Neagle and Michael Wilding!

Hear all about the startling success of 1948's Spring In Park Lane, as well as the film itself - a lighter-than-air romance containing some truly dazzling moment. We'll also be skipping down the street to Piccadilly for Neagle and Wilding's first ride out together - 1946's Piccadilly Incident, a film that could not be more different...

We've got music from Benny Goodman and Larry Clinton, a befuddling edition of Who The Hell Is  That Hollywood Legend? - plus a return to a very familiar pot...

Radio entertainment comes this time from the Screen Guild Theatre
