Product Description
Diminutive variety star Jimmy Clitheroe was the perpetual schoolboy
whose abundant Northern humour charmed and entertained a generation of
British audiences. Employing his four-foot, three-inch stature and
mischievous persona to brilliant comic effect, he proved phenomenally
popular in every medium from theatre to film and records, with The
Clitheroe Kid, one of Britain's longest-running radio sitcoms,
drawing a peak audience of 10 million and spawning numerous
catchphrases!
In 1963 Clitheroe's roguish creation hit television screens, causing
further mischief for his fictional family in this ABC sitcom
co-starring ITMA veteran (and future Please Sir!
star) Deryck Guyler, and airing in the Midlands and northern England
only. Presenting all seven half-hour episodes of That's My Boy,
along with the last remaining episode of sequel series Just
Jimmy (also starring Mollie Sugden), this set celebrates a
uniquely talented yet now largely forgotten star, and introduces The
Kid Himself to a new generation of classic comedy fans.
