- Fun podcast
A great story well read by the author. Fans of early cinema and great stories will enjoy. If you like laurel and hardy, Chaplin and are interested in the early days of music hall a must listen. I had not read the books and can’t wait for the next podcast to find out what happens. Although a fiction it is based around real historical events and make it a interesting story.
