Educating Archie

Educating Archie was a BBC Light Programme comedy show which was broadcast for nearly ten years between June 1950 and February 1960, mostly at lunchtime on Sundays. The programme featured ventriloquist Peter Brough and his doll Archie Andrews. The show was very popular, despite its unlikely central premise of a ventriloquist act on radio. Educating Archie averaged 15 million listeners, and a fan club boasted 250,000 members. It was so successful that in 1950, after only four months on the air, it won the Daily Mail's Variety Award. This series is lost.

This production, originally released in 1958, has captivated audiences with its unique storytelling. As a Scripted series, it brings a fresh perspective to the genre, maintaining a strong viewer rating of 0.0 across its 2 seasons.
