Radio Lover is a 1936 British comedy film directed by Paul Capon and Austin Melford and starring Wylie Watson, Jack Melford, Ann Penn and Betty Ann Davies.[1][2] It was written by Ian Dalrymple and Elma Dangerfield.
Hard-up Reggie Clifford meets Lancastrian plasterer Joe Morrison, who, despite his rough-and-ready looks, has a beautiful singing voice. Clifford hatches a plan to get a big broadcasting company to employ them both, with him as a singer called "The Radio Lover," but actually using Morrison's voice. However Miss Oliphant, a radical member of the radio station's board, does not approve of the arrangement.
