First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on October 17th 2021

Returning guest expert STEVE HATCHER returns to the show to talk all about the life and career of the late FRANCIS ALICK HOWARD, who was far better known as the actor and comedian FRANKIE HOWERD, who is probably best known on television for UP POMPEII! which returned to television in several versions, alongside a feature film version. This wide-ranging conversation, however, covers many of the other series and pilots that he made in a career which lasted several decades, including THEN CHURCHILL SAID TO ME which wasn't shown on television until after his death because of a strange decision to ban it due to the invasion of the Falkland Islands, which accorded it a perhaps undeserved "legendary" status, which is another strange twist in a career which involved several comebacks from the very brink of obscurity.
