Remembering Tom Edwards, campaigning in full swing, live comedy and life before streaming

Ipswich’s gentleman of retailing Tom Edwards passes aged 87, memories of shopping at RT Edwards, campaigning in full swing for the council election and Ipswich West by-election, live comedy at Ipswich Civic Centre and we reminisce about video stores. Walter Williams and Ashleigh Mac join the show for our regular yarn over the back fence.
