Kaleidoscope has made a trailer packed with tantalizing clips from missing shows in advance of its forthcoming event dedicated to consummate performer Bob Monkhouse.
The classic TV organisation is in charge of the Bob Monkhouse archive – a huge collection of 35mm and 16mm film, videos, audio reels and cassettes – gathered together by the late comedian, who died of prostate cancer in 2003.
Much of that material is officially missing from the archives and a full list of finds will be published to coincide with Kaleidoscope’s “Bob’s Full House” event, being held on Saturday, October 24, at BAFTA in London.
To whet people’s appetitie for the event, a specially-compiled trailer featuring brief clips from a number of Bob’s shows including My Pal Bob, Mad Movies and Celebrity Squares has been put online and can be found here, along with details on how to obtain tickets.
