RTBWTV November 23rd 2023 - Ian Hendry Special

This time we take a deep dive (rather than the usual leisurely swim) through the classic television that flitted across the black and white screens of the UK from the Suez Crisis of 1956 until 1974's three day week, because co hosts Guy Morgan and David Newell examine the under sung life and career of Ian Hendry.
Without him there would have been no Avengers (unthinkable!) and television in the 1960s and 70s wouldn't have been the same. But he was equally at home and in demand on the big screen and held his own even when cast alongside heavyweight famous names.
For the first time in the programme's history, Dave comes into the same studio as Guy, and is subjected to a musical quiz.
There are the usual discursive ramblings, plus Dave's personal reminiscences of not only Ian Hendry but also Charles Hawtrey (though not at the same time).
As always, rights in all music and interview clips belong to the holders and are used here for educational purposes. And don't forget, those theme tunes are available from all good online retailers.
