As the nights draw in, it’s a perfect time to listen to our roster of podcasts.

There are more Rose Tinted Black and White Television episodes for you to enjoy.
David Newell and Guy Morgan’s deep dive into the adventure television series of the 1950s and 60s lead them to the surprising conclusion that the Communist witch hunts in 1950s America gave an invaluable boost to some of the UK’s best loved series of the time.
Also, we acknowledge the passing of 1960s small screen star Kenneth Cope (Best known for Randall and Hopkirk), David Graham who supplied numerous voices for Gerry Anderson productions and later as Grandpa in Peppa Pig, and also Cleo Sylvestre who pioneered the way for black British actresses on TV.
We also examine the phenomenon of Edgar Wallace whose posthumous legacy as cinema quota quickies morphed into a TV series that gave unfamiliar roles to a lot of familiar faces.

You can catch those shows on RTBWTV’s Soundcloud page here:
