Remember Will Fyffe?

I don’t, but I do now. Here’s a 4 minute clip from the 1930 musical “Elstree Calling”. It’s definitely worth the wait.

And if you belong to Glasgow you might enjoy another 4 minutes.

Here’s a very clever animation of a photograph of Will Fyffe singing “I belong to Glasgow” just arrived on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OaQGEZi0P4Q
