Hi all just to let you know that I will be releasing the final 4 episodes of Bing’s Hollywood series in June with a new episode each Sunday. The first 2 will look at The Early Years - 1930-1932 with the last 2 looking at The Later Years - 1958-1974. Just finished the first 2 episodes and will start work on the final 2 this coming week. Hope they are found to be entertaining. Cheers, David Duncan.

They were fascinating excerpts of the early films. Great to see and hear Bing and wonder how Sennett shot some of those ourtdoor car scenes. I enjoyed also seeing the old cars and motor cycles and the microphones. Thanks David!

Thank you very much, David. What a wonderful series! A somewhat audacious question, if I may: Are there any other Crosby projects you might be contemplating?

Hi Frans thanks for the kind comments. I have been wondering what else to do and have decided to continue my “Golden Years of Hollywood “ series that looks at various films from the 1930s, 40s and 50s. I’ve covered all of Bings films so I couldn’t include them but they would be classics from that era. Will take a while to get them made but hopefully by the end of the year. Not sure if there is anything else of Bings I could cover - his recording career and radio career is too extensive and I don’t have access to all the material. Also his tv career is again too extensive and I don’t have access to all the material. Cheers, Dave Duncan.

Hullo David. I'd be pleased to see musical films from those years if you are able to add them to your productions.
Thanks for all you've done so far from Graham
