About the Book

Three charming comedy series starring the dear ladies of a musical bent, Dr Evadne Hinge and Dame Hilda Bracket Meet Hinge and Bracket, the delightful double act brought to sublime life by George Logan and Patrick Fyffe. Lifelong companions and musical collaborators, they enjoy nothing more than performing around the piano together, and trading light-hearted banter spiced with comic innuendo and a double entendre or two. Collected here are the very best of their radio appearances, including the pilot episode and first series of The Enchanting World of Hinge and Bracket. From their home in the genteel Suffolk village of Stackton Tressel, the pair embark on a variety of adventurous escapades, such as staging a murder mystery, taking part in a sonic jamboree with Peter Pratt, appearing on Desert Island Discs with Roy Plomley, sailing off on a musical cruise and orchestrating a last-minute royal celebration. Also featured are 17 episodes from The Random Jottings of Hinge and Bracket. Introduced by entries from Dame Hilda's diary, they chronicle the further misadventures of the dear ladies, including organising a Fancy Dress Ball, dealing with mice, woodworm and a headstrong donkey, partaking in a little too much home-made wine and squabbling over a holiday - and the milkman. Rounding off the merriment is At Home with Hinge and Bracket, in which we join the duo for six informal soirees as they entertain celebrity guests Benjamin Luxton, Evelyn Laye, Jack Brymer, June Whitfield, Rosalind Plowright and Anthony Newley with their inimitable mix of songs and witty conversation. NB: Due to the age and nature of the recording, it contains language that some listeners may find offensive Production credits Starring George Logan as Dr Evadne Hinge and Patrick Fyffe as Dame Hilda Bracket The Enchanting World of Hinge and Bracket Maud - Daphne Heard Mr Fewster/Mr Greenaway - Duggie Brown Walter - Joe Gladwin Violet - Daphne Oxenford Peerless Peter Pratt - Peter Pratt Roy Plomley - Himself Mr Percival - Joe Black Brigadier Roland Baines - Michael Bates Captain Frobisher - Donald Hewlett Doctor Matthews - Jonathan Howell Jean-Pierre - Andre Maranne Mr Smollett - David Marlowe Written by Mike Craig, Lawrie Kinsley and Ron McDonnell.
