Marty Feldman
DJ Annie Nightingale argues for the greatness of the late manic-eyed comic Marty Feldman. Francine Stock presents. From 2006.
BBC Radio 1’s legendary DJ Annie Nightingale CBE argues for the genius of the manic, bulbous-eyed comic and writer Marty Feldman.
Annie explains to Francine Stock how Marty’s special brand of anarchic humour has been somewhat overlooked in comedy history as one of the greats.
Finding fame on UK radio and TV in the early 1970s, he eventually landed film roles in Hollywood.
Marty Feldman's friend, colleague and associate - Barry Cryer OBE is the expert witness.
Producer John Byrne
First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in February 2006.
