First edition.

Terry-Thomas's first attempts at radio stardom had come to nothing. Terry's Topics, co-written with Frank Muir, was aborted after a single, untransmitted pilot show, and although the BBC was very happy with To Town With Terry, co-written by T-T and Talbot 'Carry On..' Rothwell, Terry-Thomas thought it was below standard and walked away from it after a six-month run. Next came Top Of The Town, co-starring Leslie Mitchell and Joan Sims, and featuring a different town and guest star each week.

The town of this (partial) script was Londonderry, and the guest star was Irish tenor Josef Locke.
