Turned Out Nice Again Zusammenfassung

Turned Out Nice Again: The Story of British Light Entertainment Louis Barfe

With a cast of thousands, including Peter Cook, Ken Dodd, Dusty Springfield, Spike Milligan, Rolf Harris, Bruce Forsyth and Reeves and Mortimer, Turned Out Nice Again reveals a world of comedians and cavorters, dancing girls and crooners. From the early days of vaudeville, via the golden age of radio, live television spectaculars, the rise of the chat show and alternative comedy, Louis Barfe pulls back the curtain of variety to reveal the world of light entertainment in all its glory.

Turned Out Nice Again Bewertungen

* 'Hugely enjoyable... Perhaps without realising it, we are now living through a light entertainment golden age. How nice to have a book that makes you ponder such an idea in the first place.' - Sinclair McKay, Daily Telegraph * 'It is... refreshing to read a book about popular entertainment by someone who genuinely loves it, without so much as a hint of that rather purist, Anglo-Saxon sneer we so often, as a nation, display about things we do simply for pleasure.' - Peter Bazalgette, Sunday Telegraph * 'A fine book... The top-billers are all here... [and] thoroughly researched facts are bolstered by rambling interviews with surviving producers... The achievement of this book is to give credit where it's overdue.' - Kit Hesketh Harvey, Guardian * 'All-encompassing: game shows, quiz shows, talent shows, sitcom spin-offs, magic acts and dancing sea lions.' - Roger Lewis, Mail on Sunday
