Description:
Radio Mirror (later known as Radio and Television Mirror) was a fan magazine for radio listeners and later TV viewers that includes profiles of the stars, visits to radio and television studios, and program listings. The early years in the 1930s show the interaction of motion pictures, recordings, the stage, radio and even politics. The role of radio in World War II is well covered in the 1940s, and by the 1950s the focus shifts to television and a new generation of personalities. -- David Pierce, 2013

It hasn't happened yet. But, now that Stop The Music has returned, everyone is after Bert again for the name of the mystery tune — except the mermaids. They don't even beg him to help them win on Break The Bank. They are respecting the beautiful, precious privacy that Bert finds on his boat. "Bless them," says Bert. "Bless them for their invisibility." Bert has a new boat, a cabin cruiser which cuts the water clean with a sweet, smooth throb.
