THE ARCHIVE ROOM - an energetic salesman, a trip to the Baldwin Valley, a farewell to the Lady of Mann - and more!

  • Résumé

  • In The Archive Room this week ....

    Louise Quirk talks with Captain Corteen in 1971 as the Lady of Mann made a farewell trip to the Calf of Man before leaving the Isle of Man for good.

    Historian Peter Kelly talks to David Callister about the very early days of the Gaiety Theatre - and we get a first taste of electronic music from the Sulby Phantom Band!

    And it's not just the interviews that are vintage - listen out for some vintage advertisements too!

    Leslie Bannan was an energetic young salesman between the two Wars, keen to get his drapery business off the ground - and he paints a vivid picture of rural life, and selling textiles to the farming community, in conversation with John Kennaugh

    And Tom Cowell is in his beloved Baldwin Valley - taking a walk round the village and chatting with Charles Webster.
