Six fiercely robust and subversive clowns, the Crazy Gang comprised three comedy double acts (Nervo and Knox, Flanagan and Allen, Naughton and Gold) originally brought together for stage shows at the London Palladium in the early 30s. One such show, O-Kay For Sound, became their first film in 1937 (d. Marcel Varnel), and, although its cinematic technique was rudimentary, it remains a brilliant record of their comic skills, which drew on circus acrobatics, slapstick, quickfire cross-talk and a healthy disregard for social and cultural hierarchies. Further films included Alf's Button Afloat (1938), The Frozen Limits (1939) and Gasbags (1940) (all d. Marcel Varnel), wherein they uncover a secret German training camp for Hitler impersonators. After World War II, they concentrated on stage work, though Life Is A Circus (d. Val Guest, 1958) was an affectionate valedictory for the by-then elderly Gang. Chris 894moo-poo wrote: >David.

Black and White Ministral Shows.. I used to enjoy them... guess would be a no no in this day and age... used to see them being rehearsed at the Studio in London... Adele Clareville NZ

One of the highlights of each day at school when I was in primary school was at the end of the day our teacher a Mrs Clark (Ringwood Road School Totton) used to read us Enid Blytons Famous Five books and we all used to look forward to this, and after getting through the whole series she turned to the Secret Seven. Another of my favourite books, being a boy, was Biggles and Billy Bunter, in fact we had a lad at our school who was the spitting image of Billy Bunter as depicted in some of the books illustrations, complete with metal rimmed glasses and bow tie!!
