I'm currently doing research for a proposed book about the life and career of English comedian Jimmy Clitheroe, including his BBC radio show 'The Clitheroe Kid' (broadcast from 1957-72). Can you help? I'm trying to find people who knew or worked with him, I'm looking for press and magazine cuttings about him, and I'm trying to find theatre programmes for shows he appeared in. Anything at all in fact! I'd also like to talk to anyone who has memories of him, or who saw him in a show. I'm looking for information about his co-stars in 'The Clitheroe Kid' as well: Oldham comedian Danny Ross, Scottish character actor Peter Sinclair, film star Patricia Burke, and actress Diana Day. Any memories or memorabilia. If you can help me in any way, please e-mail me. Thanks, Sandra Skuse.
