Hinge & Bracket Gala Evenings

After many years of entertaining the inhabitants of Stackton Tressell with their Gala Concerts, Dame Hilda Bracket and Dr. Evadne Hinge were thrilled to be invited by the BBC to take their very individual style of concert performance to a wider audience. These events, recorded between 1977 and 1981 at the Royal Hall, Harrogate and the Opera House, Buxton, feature the dear ladies with full orchestral and choral support. The ladies perform a wide range of music from Gilbert and Sullican to Verdi. Of course, Dr. Hinge has a few pithy remarks to make, while Dame Hilda remains her usual irrepressible self.

A Prime Minister on Prime Ministers

Veteran television interviewer and presenter Sir David Frost is the only person to have interviewed all six British prime ministers in office between 1964 and 2007, and all US presidents from 1969 to the present. His fearlessly incisive approach is legendary and, just six months after his monumental encounter with former president Richard Nixon on American television, he presented this unique series in which the Rt. Hon. Harold Wilson was invited to discuss British prime ministers of the recent and distant past. In power for a total of 13 years, from 1964 to 1970 and again from 1974 to 1976, Harold Wilson’s government had presided over a country undergoing vast economic and social upheaval, his leadership frequently coming under attack from both right and left; in 1977, he was well placed to reflect on the challenges, triumphs and failings of his predecessors.
