The many faces of June Whitfield

I too remember Take it from Here! My parents loved it and it was on the radio on Sunday afternoon I think, I was about 8 at the time! The last thing I remember seeing J.W in, was Last of the Summer Wine! She had a husband called Traviss whom you never ever saw, but heard plenty about!! Lovely lady!

My dad rigged up a speaker system on the landing so that I could hear radio comedies after I'd gone to bed. Much as I loved Take it From Here, June Whitfield's Eth is the character I can best remember. Jimmy Edwards and Dick Bentley have faded into the background. She has remained in the forefront of British comedy for over 70 years. What an unparalleled career.

Lovely programme about June Whitfield - there are lots of shows on Radio 4Extra which she is in (bad grammar but you know what I mean).

I will watch that, thanks for the recommendation WW.

You can still catch old episodes of The Glums on Radio 4 Extra.

Thanks

Was on BBC2 yesterday at 8 pm.I put in a search for The Many faces of June Whitfield as didn't immediately show up on iPlayer choices.

I didn’t see that programme Washerwoman what channel?

Yes, I remember The Glums, Ron and Eth, very funny.
June Whitfield was always in work and had a very successful career.I used to like Terry and June, I expect it was of it’s time though and would seem dated now.

I remember The Glums.

"Aaaaw Ron."
"Yers Eth."

Loverly stuff.
