大象传媒

Descended from a Peruvian swordsmith, comedian (The Goon Show) and broadcaster Michael Bentine has a sharper interest than most in the exhibits at The Royal Armouries, housed in the Tower of London.

Down Your Way was a schedule staple for decades - starting on the 大象传媒 Home Service in 1946 and ending its run on 大象传媒 Radio 4 in 1992. Using a variety of hosts, including Richard Dimbleby and Brian Johnston, the programme toured villages, towns and cities across the UK. At the height of the series' success in the 1950s, it was attracting 10 million listeners a week.

Producer: Jill Marshall.

First broadcast on 大象传媒 Radio 4 in May 1992.
