Tommy Handley (1933)

Full title reads: “Now ’Pathe Pictorial’ presents another famous Radio Star, Tommy Handley, who will tell us something of his murky past!“ Comedian Tommy Handley performs a monologue about his youth. He speaks into a telephone giving details of his school days. Silly stuff, most of which wouldn’t make much sense to a modern audience. Tommy then approaches the piano and sings a sing with an accompaniment by a pianist we only see from behind. The song might be called “Hyde Park Corner“.
