Bernard Murdoch (1907-1990) was a British comedy radio, film and television
performer. While studying at Pembroke College, Cambridge, he appeared multiple
times in the theater club called the Footlights. The club was known as a hotbed
of comedy and satire. In 1937 he was listed among the cast of the
Television Follies, an early BBC TV program. Murdoch had his radio
break in the BBC comedy program "Band Waggon" (1938-1940) as part of a
double act with Arthur Askey. He reprised this role in the 1940 film of the same
name and after serving in World War II appeared in the TV version, Living It
Up. He also appeared in "The Men from the Ministry" from 1962 to 1977, a
radio comedy series about two civil service members. Murdoch's first film
role was as a dancer in Looking on the Bright Side in 1932. He also
was known for his parts in The Ghost Train (1941), Rumpole of the
Bailey (1978) and Strictly Confidential (1959). In the early 1980s,
Murdoch provided the English narration for the Polish animated version of The
Moomins, from the classic series of books by Tove Jansson. Irregular edges.
Slightly smudged throughout. Writing faded slightly. Signature mounted on
