    The series format was not too dis-similar to ‘Hancock’s Half-Hour’.

    Howerd  plays ‘Francis Howerd’, an exaggerated version of himself, a humble  comedian with aspirations of becoming an international star.

    Each  edition would begin with Frankie addressing the audience directly,  before relating a personal experience which would be told in flashback.

    Each week he would be aided and abetted by various star guests.

    ITMA  was  a character-driven comedy whose satirical targets included    government  departments and the ostensibly petty wartime regulations.    Parts of the  shows were re-written in the hour before the broadcast,   to  ensure its  topicality. The show broke away from the conventions  of   previous radio  comedies, and from the humor of the music halls.

    It's That Man Again (commonly contracted to ITMA) a Radio     Comedy  programme which ran over twelve series from 1939 to 1949. The     shows featured Tommy Handley in the central role, a fast-talking    figure,  around whom all the other characters orbited. The programmes    were  written by Ted and produced by Francis Worsley. Handley died    during the  twelfth series, the remaining programmes of which were    immediately  cancelled: ITMA could not work without him, and no  further   series were  commissioned.

    The shows used numerous sound effects in a novel manner, which,     alongside a wide range of voices and accents, created the programme's     atmosphere.

  • THE BLACK MUSEUM Orson Wells - Jar of Acid - Halloween Special / thriller

    Visit our store for more shows Audioshows.e-junkie.com

    The Black Museum is another collaboration between Welles and producer Harry Alan Towers.    The radio series treated audiences to crime thrillers based on actual   Scotland yard cases.  Its life spanned exactly the year 1952, with a  few  weeks off at the beginning of June.


    Welles played his usual role of host and narrator, and also steered the   series in terms of its major direction and aesthetics.  Though Welles   and Towers drew inspiration from Scotland Yard (the Black Museum was Scotland Yard’s crime museum), and while Towers produced another   series The Secrets of Scotland Yard on that entity’s crime-fighting   exploits, the aim with The Black Museum was not historical accuracy.  Welles was out to provoke and to amaze   with gruesome details.  The format of the show was his host character   strolling through the museum, whereupon, as radiohorrorhosts.com tells   us, he would “casually pick up or point out various murder weapons and   examine them, all the while droning on about the related crime as if it   were a medical procedure.”
