Dick Bentley - Jimmy Edwards, Take It From Here, BBC Radio, ABC Radio and Regional Content

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Charles Walter "Dick" Bentley (14 May 1907 27 August 1995), born in Melbourne, Australia, was a comedian and actor. He starred with Jimmy Edwards in Take It From Here for BBC Radio. As a boy, Bentley learned several musical instruments, and while still in his teens was a staple on the Melbourne cabaret circuit as a comedian and singer, his act consisting of playing a few bars of music deliberately badly, interspersed with jokes and legitimate musical numbers. He made his first appearance on ABC Radio in the early 1930s and by 1938 had become a fairly prominent personality. In that year he moved to London and worked for the BBC. Newly married to Peta, he returned to Australia on the outbreak of war, and spent several years entertaining the troops in the Pacific theatre.
