Fact #152949
When:
Short story:
The Four Ramblers, Dorita y Pepe, Ted Lune and Janie Marden with Harry Engleman (piano), Sid Gateley (bass) and Bob Mansell (drums) perform live on the BBC Light Programme Radio show Workers' Playtime, broadcast on this occasion from "a firm of industrial lighting and heating equipment manufacturers in Birmingham".
Full article:
Despite their gloriously latin-sounding name, Dorita Y Pepe, were, somewhat disappointingly both British from South London, and their real names were Dorothy and Peter. They dressed in ponchos, both played acoustic guitars, and looked very Spanish. Dorita sang powerful renditions of Spanish songs, while Pepe stood there playing guitar and looking suitably inscrutable.
