Press clippings

The World of Stanley Holloway (BBC1) came foaming up like a pint of stout. Only the commentary was flattish. A downright Dickensian sense of hot toasted muffins and most and jovial gingerbread. Same time tomorrow for a second helping of the same including the film of My Fair Lady where everybody, it appeared, hated everybody else to bits. Wot larks, eh, Pip.

Nancy Banks-Smith, The Guardian, 29th December 1983
