| Description: | From the issue PICTORIAL LOOKS AT YOUTH Broadcasting House, London. Various shots of the "Dick Barton" radio show being broadcast from studio. The actors, including Noel Johnson who plays Dick, are huddled around a microphone. Various shots showing junior radio engineers Antonia Madden (aged 18) and Sheila Blower (aged 19) at work. Antonia is in charge of sound effects: she splashes water in bucket, slams a car door and runs on a plank of wood. Sheila is in charge of special effects records - she rushes about studio putting on discs and twiddling knobs. | |
