Many of Australia’s greatest radio serials were produced during the 1940s. Among those listed in this guide are the Sunday night one-hour plays - The Lux Radio Theatre and The Macquarie Radio Theatre (becoming the Caltex Theatre after 1947); the many Jack Davey Shows, and The Bob Dyer Show; the Colgate Palmolive variety extravaganzas, headed by Calling the Stars, The Youth Show and McCackie Mansion, which starred the outrageously funny Mo (Roy Rene). Fine drama programs produced in Sydney in the 1940s included The Library of the Air and Max Afford's serial Hagen's Circus. Among the comedy programs listed from this decade are the George Wallace Shows, and Mrs 'Obbs with its hilariously garbled language.
  • Bert Button Comments on Radio – 1985

    Bert Button Comments on Radio – 1985

    BERT BUTTON COMMENTS ON RADIO – 1985 Willie Fennell: actor of radio, films, theatre. In the post war years over 60% of radio features were imported from America and the United Kingdom. A Parliamentary Standing Committee on Broadcasting was concerned about Australian artists only participating in about 30% of locally recorded programs. It was about that time that the “Colgate Palmolive Show” was formed, which included Jack Davey, Bob Dyer, Roy Rene, Joy Nicholls, Kitty Bluett, Hal Lashwood, Dick Bentley, George Foster and Willie Fennell. Willie’s main claim to popularity was the expression “Ow are yer mate” and it could be claimed that his being typed this way did not do justice to the real ability he possessed. Perhaps the first public indication of this was when he starred in “Life with Dexter” and since then he has successfully participated in a number of TV and theatrical productions. Willie was always a fairly quiet unassuming person; not easily cultivated as a friend, but an individual who would always leave his mark in the field of entertainment. Whilst he recollects with pleasure his participation in several top rating radio shows such as “Calling The Stars” (his first appearance in radio), “Ada and Elsie”, and “The Cashmere Bouquet Show”, I’ve always felt that Willie Fennell obtained more satisfaction from his association with theatrical and film productions, although he also obviously enjoyed facing up to large audiences in club shows. Now in his sixties, Willie Fennell has been associated with several commercial and ABC TV programs such as “No. 96” and “Young Doctors”, and also stars in theatrical productions and the occasional film.

    THE MAOe gPARK 50 YEARS OF RADIO IN AUSTRALIA R.R.WALKER One of the amenities which our modern world takes so much for granted is radio. Yet it is a highly complex and sophisticatedbusi- ness which requires technical pro- ficiency,outstanding personalities and polished showmanship. Radio in Australia began fifty years ago with crystal sets and pri- vate licences. In a comparatively short time it has developed into a vast wave of sound which rolls in from widely separated cities and towns throughout the country. To celebrate radio's Golden Jubi- lee, R. R. Walker, who has had much to do with the world of radio, has set down here a full and col- ourful description of this popular medium. He recalls the challenges of War and television;the financial and production triumphs and failures; the characters - Jack Davey, Bob Dyer, Norman Banks - and count- less other guests, invited and un- invited, to Australian living rooms. More than a history, this book is alsoa personal record of times past and present - and a forecast of things to come. Jacket Design: 0. J.
