THE ARCHIVE ROOM - 15 JUNE 2023
X The Archive Room
Tuesday, 13 June 2023 - 25 minutes
Master storyteller (and natural comedian) Ian Qualtrough introduces us to a host of characters in this edition of The Archive Room - family members, neighbours, staff in the family business and great characters he came to know through a lifetime spent in the south of the Island.
There's Willie Sayle, Aunt May, Albert 'Alfonso' Craine, Dick the Bumbee, Dickie Cooill, "Gumper" and Jackie Moore with his little dog .... and the story of the 'borrowed bike'!
Then Evelyn Fraser and Robert Hendry put us 'on track' for next week's programme ..... they have transport stories to share - and Episode 6 of The Archive Room - the last in the present series - will be packed with funny and fascinating stories told by the people who travelled on, or worked on, the railways in the days when they were the Island's lifeline.
