Does anyone remember the Channel 4 series from a good while back called 'The Long Summer' [1918-1939] Gerry portrayed a 1920's 'listener in' with a GEC crystal receiver. It really was very good, in fact the whole series was fascinating. Gerry at his best. It was narrated by Alan Bennett and they could not have a chosen a better chap. I have the whole series on VHS recordings. John.
