In this often laugh-out-loud edition of Behind the Scenes we’re chatting with actor Karl Jenkinson. In a 40-year career, he was regularly involved in the funniest Noel’s House Party ‘Gotcha’ set-ups while also appearing in top British TV series Eastenders, The Bill and Inspector Morse. These days Karl’s also become a top voice artist and a much in-demand international multi-award-winning book narrator for novels and best-selling true crime biographies.

If you’re a fan of classic and vintage television, you’ll probably think Robert Heading has enjoyed the best of jobs, because he’s one of Britain’s foremost TV documentary Archive Producers. Which means for the past 25 years he’s been paid to put his feet up and watch thousands of hours of old telly shows. And for the most part he’s specialised in comedy and light entertainment. A regular behind the scenes name on the credit roller of Channel 5’s “When stuff Goes Horribly Wrong” series, along with retrospective specials celebrating Peter Kay, Tommy Cooper, Victoria Wood, Ricky Tomlinson and Bob Hope.

In Birmingham, on the 12th of May 1924, the performer who was to become one of Britain’s finest comic actors Tony Hancock was born. Across the 1950s and early 1960s, with his phenomenally successful, award-winning radio and television series, Tony was the most famous voice and then face in broadcast entertainment. The streets would empty when Hancock was on the air.  To mark the centenary of Tony Hancock’s birth, our BTSWCE guest this time is the closest living relative to “The Lad Himself”.  She is the keeper and curator of the Hancock Archive and guardian of Tony’s legacy.  An official descendant of British Comedy Royalty - Lucy Hancock.

This time on BTSWCE we’re chatting with TV Executive Producer and King of Saturday Nights on Channel 5, Simon Withington, about his role in putting together the newly published autobiography of his best friend, actor, singer and showbiz personality - Jess Conrad OBE. The book is called “From Blitz to Glitz” and Simon talks about the collaborative writing process, his diligent research and gives us a tantalising flavour of the colourful anecdotes and vivid memories that Jess recalls from his astonishing, non-stop 70-year career in the spotlight. Diana Dors, The Krays, Cilla Black and Roger Moore are just a few of the famous faces who have featured in the life of Jess Conrad. We find out how a Teddy Boy from South London became a ‘60s pop singer, actor and the first person ever to play the lead role in Joseph and his Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat. “From Blitz to Glitz” is published by Oak Tree Books.                                      ⁠https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/Jess-Conrad/author/B0CSM1W12D?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1708711707&sr=8-1&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true⁠ Simon’s accompanying documentary can be found here: ⁠https://www.amazon.co.uk/Jess-Conrad-Blitz-Glitz/dp/B0CN95RYVX/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1O84HP6CFIERA&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.vous4XOl8utw4UJ6KTF6SQ.91_bCnloVkkW8Npd8338ID30Hu91zTIBwVURj8rwpt0&dib_tag=se&keywords=from+blitz+to+glitz+jess+conrad&qid=1708605060&s=instant-video&sprefix=from+blitz+to+glitz+jess+conrad%2Cinstant-video%2C162&sr=1-1⁠ Support the podcast by becoming a Patron: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/BEHINDTHESCENESWITHCOLINEDMONDS⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Colin Edmonds socials ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: colin.edmonds.73⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: colinedmondsssm⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter:@ColinEdmondsSSM⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: https://www.steamsmokeandmirrors.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Listen to all episodes of the podcast available on; ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Amazon Music⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Audible⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ BOOKS Buy Steam, Smoke and Mirrors ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Available at Caffeine Nights⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Available at Amazon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Available on Audible⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Buy The Lazarus Curiosity: Steam, Smoke and Mirrors 2 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Available at Caffeine Nights⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Available at Amazon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Available on Audible⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Buy The Nostradamus Curiosity: Steam, Smoke and Mirrors 3 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Available at Caffeine Nights⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Available at Amazon

In this Special Edition of Behind the Scenes we’re marking the anniversary by chatting with Bob’s daughter, Abigail Monkhouse. What was it like growing up with a father who was one of the most recognisable faces in the country – and with family friends who were the biggest stars in film and TV? Abigail exclusively shares her fondest personal recollections of Bob and her mission to sustain the memory of her remarkable Dad in the best possible way.
