This book contains details of the material found within the Bob Monkhouse Collection. It is illustrated with many stills and script extracts from Bob’s work which no longer survives in broadcast form. Any enthusiast of television will enjoy this informative and well-researched guide to the golden years of radio, film and television light entertainment.
