Скачать или смотреть Kenway and Young - act (1942)

Husband and wife comic team Nan Kenway and Douglas Young were most famous for their popular wartime radio series 'Very Tasty, Very Sweet'.(Food was strictly rationed, so jokes about it were always well received.) Their gentle humour hasn't aged well, but this live 1942 performance is a good example of their style (though the recording quality in the second half is less satisfactory). It's introduced by Nan Kenway from my interview with her in 1981.

Nan Kenway's real name was Helen McCartney. She studied as a concert pianist at the London College of Music before becoming a performer in light entertainment. The performances with Douglas Young often included her piano playing, and she was responsible for the popularity of the Scherzo from Lifolff's Concerto Symphonique no.4.
