Why have I gathered you all here today? This Gun in My Hand!Show Notes:1. Charters and Caldicott were two minor characters in Hitchcock's 1938 film The Lady Vanishes. Played by the actors Basil Radford and Naunton Wayne, the pair were popular enough to get three films of their own, though not with Hitchcock. After creative differences with the film studio in 1946, the actors appeared as similar characters with different names in seven other films and five BBC radio productions. A 1985 BBC television series rebooted Charters and Caldicott with new actors.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charters_and_Caldicott2. “Sir, a woman has been murdered in your house, therefore it follows there must be a murderer.” That line is from a teaser for an actual British police procedural show. They use it in a promo on almost every dvd for Acorn TV and the dullness of it kills me every time.Credits:Music in this episode came from these public domain films:The Sun Sets at Dawn (1950), and Too Late for Tears (1949, aka Killer Bait).

As part of his research for our recent episode on Alfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes, guest Noel Thingvall did a deep dive into the cinematic career of actors Naunton Wayne and Basil Radford, who steal the movie as the very British comic relief characters Charters and Caldicott. While this particular tangent went a bit too long to be included in the episode, we've decided to present it complete here. Listen as Noel discusses their onscreen partnership through the 30s and 40s where they reprised their roles, and played variations on them, in a series of films. It may not be cricket, but it's a fascinating journey.
All aboard as Noel Thingvall returns to the show for a train ride into international intrigue courtesy of the master of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock, and his comedic thriller The Lady Vanishes. Listen as we discuss the movie's wild tonal switches, the film's portrait of pre-World War II British politics, and the charm of scene-stealing supporting characters Charters and Caldicott. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and longing for Karloff / Lugosi road comedies. Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.
It is 90 seconds to midnight on the Doomsday Clock. In large part due to developments in the war in Ukraine, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists moved the hands of the infamous timepiece forward.Just weeks earlier the Department of Energy announced the first reported controlled fusion reaction that was touted as a breakthrough for national defense and the future of clean energy.Given the history of that lab, there is reason for skepticism.In this episode of Breaking Green we will talk with Dr. Helen Caldicott.Born in Melbourne, Australia in 1938, Dr Caldicott received her medical degree from the University of Adelaide Medical School in 1961. She founded the Cystic Fibrosis Clinic at the Adelaide Children's Hospital in 1975 and subsequently was an instructor in pediatrics at Harvard Medical School and on the staff of the Children's Hospital Medical Center, Boston, Mass., until 1980 when she resigned to work full time on the prevention of nuclear war.In 1971, Dr Caldicott played a major role in Australia's opposition to French atmospheric nuclear testing in the Pacific; in 1975 she worked with the Australian trade unions to educate their members about the medical dangers of the nuclear fuel cycle, with particular reference to uranium mining.While living in the United States from 1977 to 1986, she played a major role in re-invigorating as President, Physicians for Social Responsibility, an organization of 23,000 doctors committed to educating their colleagues about the dangers of nuclear power, nuclear weapons and nuclear war. On trips abroad she helped start similar medical organizations in many other countries. The international umbrella group (International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War) won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1985. Dr Caldicott has received many prizes and awards for her work, including the Lannan Foundation's 2003 Prize for Cultural Freedom and twenty one honorary doctoral degrees. She was personally nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by Linus Pauling – himself a Nobel Laureate. The Smithsonian has named Dr Caldicott as one of the most influential women of the 20th Century.

Alfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes was released in 1938 and is based, in part, on the book "The Wheel Spins". It has been remade three times for the big screen and television. As the title implies, a lady vanishes while on a train. This movie is full of intrigue and is a fantastic spy story. So, once again, a train is a key location for a spy movie and here, it is vital for the story. Music is also a key piece to this movie as well. Listen to find out more! The Lady Vanishes has more humor than most Hitchcock movies. And, the characters Charters and Caldicott appear in this movie for comic relief. They were so successful that they appeared in other movies in the future. An interesting trivia question is asked about one of the actors in this episode! See if you know the answer! So, join Dan and Tom as they decode The Lady Vanishes: Plot and scene analysis, new discoveries, and what movies had this movie influenced or how it was influenced by other spy movies.

The classic mystery and comedy film The Lady Vanishes, directed by Alfred Hitchcock and released in 1938, is considered the film that put Hitchcock on the radar of Hollywood. The main stars are a beautiful, wealthy young woman named Iris Henderson, played by the 1940s star Margaret Lockwood, and an older mysterious woman named Miss Froy, played by Dame May Whitty. Micheal Redgrave plays Iris's love interest Gilbert in his first big break, and the comedy duo obsessed with cricket, Caldicott, and Charter are played by Naunton Wayne and Basil Radford. Finally, a menacing doctor named Dr. Hartz, played by Paul Lukas, is equipped with an evil laugh. The movie starts by showing an eccentric band of travelers stuck in an Eastern European ski mountain town for the night while they wait for their train. During this part, you meet a colorful cast of characters from a group of clog dancers, the comedy duo Caldicott and Charters, a beautiful English woman, a singer, and a mysterious older woman. The plot is about a woman named Iris Henderson who gets bumped on the head before her long train journey from the ski lodge. She meets Miss Froy, and they become friends. And suddenly, during the trip, Miss Froy vanishes into thin air. Oh my goodness!!! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/collin-sugg/message

First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on August 8th 2021 As crickety-cricket returns to terrestrial television in yet another exciting new format, episode forty-four of VISION ON SOUND finds SANDY McGREGOR returning for a nostalgic ramble through our memories of watching cricket on television in our youth. Regular listeners will no doubt expect an hour of total silence given my usual response to anything sport-related, but, happily for non-cricket fans, it's Sandy & I, so we rarely stick to the point for too long, so it's an enjoyable nostalgic chat mentioning highland games & caber tossing, Peter Davison's influence on this strange fascination, a school reunion, the strange combination of cigarette advertising and sport, the BBC's TEST MATCH SPECIAL on the radio, pre-second-world-war sports coverage, fielding positions, a weird fascination of numbers & statistics, Charters & Caldicott, Peter West & Tony Lewis, the poetry of the commentary of John Arlott, the legend of Ritchie Benaud, the eclectic career of Fred Trueman, the development of television graphics, and how people of a certain age followed overseas tours. PLEASE NOTE - For Copyright reasons, musical content sometimes has to be removed for the podcast edition. All the spoken word content remains (mostly) as it was in the broadcast version.
