In this episode, I discuss the film career of Margaret Rutheford with Jay Jay Epega (media consultant) from the United Kingdom and Dave King (Director/producer/writer/lecture) who is based in Norway. Both Jay Jay and Dave worked together at the Turner Broadcasting/TCM/ Carton Network in London. Dave has a superlative knowledge of film in general which nicely compliments the love of Margaret Rutherford's work and Jay Jay's own family history in Hollywood. The two of them are a wealth of knowledge regarding Margaret Rutherford. Doug Hess is the host! Follow Forgotten Hollywood on FB!
