100 Films
57 Stage Plays
10 Radio Performances
85 TV Appearances
4 TV Series (The World of Wooster as Jeeves)

That's an impressive life in entertainment. I have just bought a newly published hardback edition of "The Price Of Fame", a very interesting biography of Dennis Price (1915-1973) which is lavishly full of photographs. Dennis could play any sort of part and was once a regular in British films.

I can thoroughly recommend this book.

Looks like a great read Maurice. I have always liked Dennis Price, he pretty well stole every scene in every movie he was in. I will definitely get a copy.
On super 8, he has a cameo appearance in The Magic Box.

Surely he had more than 10 radio performances - unless you count The Navy Lark series 1 as one performance.

Perhaps I should have said shows or series. Just counted the titles.
1954 Happy Holiday (his own radio series)
1959 The Navy Lark (series one of the series)
1961 It's a Deal (a series in twelve episodes)
