El Loro posted:Old British film from 1943 on the Talking Pictures channel called "Variety Jubilee" in the schedule for early Wednesday morning at 4 am. Story is of 3 generations of music hall owners spanning the early 1900s to the early 1940s,
Film is only of interest to anyone interested in music hall acts and songs from that time as the film has numerous acts and songs. Besides songs which are associated with wars (such as "It's a Long Way to Tipperary" and "'Till the Boys come Home" there are songs such as "If you were the only girl in the world", "I do like to be beside the seaside" and "After the Ball" which some of the lyrics and music are quite well known.
One of the acts is "Wilson Keppel & Betty", the famous sand dancers who dressed up in psuedo-Egyptian outfits. I don't know which routine(s) they did for the film so might not include their much imitated one.
I have seen them on film El. Very funny
