A Colin Harrington Page
We enjoyed many shows at the Astra Cinema in Kasfareet. In addition to The Cairo Show and the Harry Secombe show, I also recall the Ivy Benson Big Band Show, the Ruby Murray Show, the RAF MEAF Swing Band, the 20 Questions Show.
The Ivy Benson Big Band Show
The first two pics are not Colin`s but actually by courtesy of Arthur Bach who attended the Tel El Kebir concert and when eventually demobbed, went on holiday to the Isle of Man. And who was on at the local theatre ? The Ivy Benson Band. He somehow contrived to get backstage for a few words with Ivy Benson and had his pic taken with her. She did tell him though that she could not remember him from her visit to TEK. Stock reply I suppose for any guys who saw the shows.

Does any one remember the guy above with the dummy ? Could it be Sandy Powell ? Did he ever come to Kasfareet ?
