Profile for Roger Wilmut

I was born in 1942: I I joined the BBC World Service as a Technical Operaor, then from 1968 worked for them as a Studio Manager (sound mixer) until I took early retirement in 1995 - then I did the same thing a few days a month on a casual basis until I 'really' retired in September 2007. My interests include music (Classical and classic jazz), old records, new records and hi-fi, cinema (including silent films),  cycling,  science fiction, and computers (provided they're Macs). I've also written several books on broadcast comedy, including on the Goons, Tony Hancock, and the Monty Python generation.
