That Man Remembered

A tribute to Tommy Handley, star of ITMA - It's That Man Again, the live comedy radio show that became an institution and kept Britain laughing during the dark days of the Second World War.

Marking 50 years since It's That Man Again first aired, That Man Remembered is presented by Roger Worsley, whose father Francis was the producer of the original series.

Over 300 programmes were broadcast with up to 20 million listeners tuned in all around world, and when Tommy died suddenly in 1949, there were outpourings of grief at his passing. Contributors to the programme compare it to a royal death.
