The Anonymous Widower

I’ve Listened To The Tape

I went to Liverpool University in the Autumn of 1964.

The University in those days had a Rag \Week, which in Liverpool was called Panto Week.

This link to the University of Liverpool web site, gives a flavour.

There used to be a debate in the Mountford Hall of the Guild of Undergraduates and usually someone locally famous was invited. In 1965, it was The Scaffold.

I don’t know how I got there, but a few days after seeing the Scaffold, I ended up in a Hall of Residence listening to a tape of the debate of the previous year.

It was a virtuoso performance by Ken Dodd and it went on for hours.

I wonder, if that tape still exists!
