BRIAN INGLIS presented Granada Television's highly popular programme "ALL OUR YESTERDAYS" for twelve years, recalling the events of 25 years before, week by week. It reached its greatest popularity during 1964-1970, when it was covering the years of World War 2. Bill Grundy was the Producer.
BRIAN INGLIS narrates this unique sound archive in his own inimitable style. This CD is one of the most comprehensive collections of the actual sounds of the statesmen, politicians and entertainers taken from Pathe newsreels, with the evocative sounds of war that stir the memory for millions of people.
BRIAN INGLIS was a squadron leader in the RAF, and his old friend Bill Grundy, who researched the material, was in the Fleet Air Arm.
Television broadcaster Peter Wheeler was the Producer.
Among the SOUNDS OF ALL OUR YESTERDAYS are King George VI, Princess Elizabeth, Princess Margaret, Attlee, Beaverbrook, Chamberlain, Churchill, Eisenhower, De Gaulle, Hitler, MacArthur, Montgomery, Roosevelt, and the entertainers George Formby, Tommy Handley, Myra Hess, Vera Lynn, and Jack Train.
