Did anyone see the programme about the old Music Halls on BBC4 recently?
I was fascinated and saw it again on iplayer - amazing how many of the old songs I knew! And also the new light on their innuendo.....
And: I realised that when the Britannia Music Hall opened in Glasgow in 1857, my greatgrandfather was living near there at the age of 17, and I wonder if he could have resisted this disreputable place! Wish I knew.
