Ipswich’s gentleman of retailing Tom Edwards passes aged 87, memories of shopping at RT Edwards, campaigning in full swing for the council election and Ipswich West by-election, live comedy at Ipswich Civic Centre and we reminisce about video stores. Walter Williams and Ashleigh Mac join the show for our regular yarn over the back fence.
