New ITMA Show
HE new ITMA show is on the airnew at least to Dunedin audiences. I wondered just what might succeed Tomtopia, a country of which I was getting rather fond. But to find Tommy Handley back in England again was refreshing, as it gave him a brilliant ‘
opportunity of taking pot-shots at a lot of things which are not peculiar to England. The queueing system, the government, rationing, the housing system, and so on, are likely to prove Tommy’s targets for some time to come. In issuing a new ITMA series, the organisers have wisely not altered the general outline of the programme. Most listeners to the new series, like myself, would be relieved to hear once egain the phrases "It’s being so cheerful as keeps’ me going," and the classical "I don’t mind if I do." ITMA, whether situated in Tomtopia or London, would scarcely be the same without them.
