What a day we had! I know there were some train issues for some who then hiked mountains and flagged down replacement buses, thumbed lifts and hired bikes – just to be there with us, thank you! People came from as far as the Isle of Bute, to Lands’ End and everywhere in between. The first panel was hilarious, Glyn Baker told some wonderful stories of his father Stanley Baker and his own career; Jonathan Kydd was as enter- taining as ever about his dad, dear Sam, and having Sydney Tafler’s son Jonathan Tafler joining us was the ic- ing on the cake. He certainly has his dear father’s voice! An immensely proud moment for them and us and seeing them on the stage with the shots of their fathers above them was quite emotional... Both of the interviewers Robert Ross and Sean Hannam kept the questions coming. Lovely Lola set us up for the day with a beautiful number in her unique glamourous style and there was much toe-tapping and rapturous applause. Brian Murphy and his dear wife Linda Regan then did a wonderful job of opening the show, we couldn’t do it without them! A short film, The Telephone at Work taught us the perils of excessive use of telephones in the 60s/early 70s and how to commu- nicate, (that was an eye opener for the younger members of the audience!) – then gorgeous Marty Wilde MBE came on stage, sang his new song about dear Eddie (I don’t think there was a dry eye in the house) and along with excellent questions by lovely John Hannam had us chuckling along for the whole interview.

  • EARL CAMERON Sapphire
    EARL CAMERON Sapphire Reuniting Cameron with director Basil Dearden after Pool of London, and hastened into production following the Notting Hill riots of summer 1958, Sapphire continued Dearden and producer Michael Relph’s valuable run of ‘social problem’ pictures, this time using a murder-mystery plot as a vehicle to sharply probe contemporary attitudes to race. Cameron’s role here is relatively small, but, playing the brother of the biracial murder victim of the title, the actor makes his mark in a couple of memorable scenes. Like Dearden’s later Victim (1961), Sapphire was scripted by the undervalued Janet Green. Alex Ramon, bfi.org.uk Sapphire is a graphic portrayal of ethnic tensions in 1950s London, much more widespread and malign than was represented in Dearden’s Pool of London (1951), eight years earlier. The film presents a multifaceted and frequently surprising portrait that involves not just ‘the usual suspects’, but is able to reveal underlying insecurities and fears of ordinary people. Sapphire is also notable for showing a successful, middle-class black community – unusual even in today’s British films. Dearden deftly manipulates tension with the drip-drip of revelations about the murdered girl’s life. Sapphire is at first assumed to be white, so the appearance of her black brother Dr Robbins (Earl Cameron) is genuinely astonishing, provoking involuntary reactions from those he meets, and ultimately exposing the real killer. Small incidents of civility and kindness, such as that by a small child on a scooter to Dr Robbins, add light to a very dark film. Earl Cameron reprises a role for which he was famous, of the decent and dignified black man, well aware of the burden of his colour.

Well it's been hectic during February and some days the telephone has been Red-Hot! (Well not quite) In the centre pages we report the sale of George's family home in Warrington, "Hillcrest." The agents told the Newspapers that George was born there but, as we know, he wasn't. He was born at No.3 Westminster St, Wigan in 1904. He moved to Warrington around 1917. Although the roads have been blocked with .snow I am pleased that this hasn't prevented the members getting to the meetings. The highlight in February was the showing of "Goodnight Sweetheart" on BBC TV, Feb 5th. Leading up to the showing the phom ~ was busy again with members ringing to tell me that it was "all about George & Beryl." What a disappointment! It was an insult to George & Beryl and all Formby fans. After the showing, no less than 20 faxes went out to Newspapers and Radio Stations. Now Read All About It In TheN. West George Formby Newsletter. ***************** "Goodnight Sweetheart" BBC 1 TV 5th Feb. What a load of old RUBBISH. The BBC must be shoti of material to produce such tripe. Usually it is a good entertaining programme and each week the hero "has a go" at our George - which is acceptable as we don't expect everybody to be a Formby fan.
