In early 1943, funnyman Jack Benny developed a serious case of pneumonia while traveling to entertain the troops. Someone would need to stand in for the sultan of Sunday night radio. But who? Orson Welles, the prestige-project prodigy, was an unlikely but inspired choice. Benny’s regular gang is on hand; Phil Harris returns from the military; and additional guests George Burns, Gracie Allen, Barbara Stanwyck, and Butterfly McQueen pop in for a visit. This is The Jack Benny Program like you’ve never heard it before.

The voice of Orson Welles - smooth and sure, but edged with danger – speaks to you from London. He’s here to tell you about a repository of death, a warehouse of homicide “in the grim stone structure on the Thames which houses Scotland Yard.” Welles will draw your attention to small artifacts from murders most foul, each of which provide a vital clue to a killer’s identity. An international cast - including Joan Lord, Harp McGuire, and Joe McCormick – breathe life into these twelve tales of death.

Hilarious Hollywood spoofs were a beloved feature on many classic Jack Benny radio shows.

A treasure trove for both Benny-philes and film fans, this set includes 12 digitally restored and remastered episodes, performances by the likes of Bob Hope and Edward G. Robinson.
