The Jack Benny Program is regarded as an American classic - running first on radio from 1932 to 1955, with re-runs to 1958.
With a fine cast of supporting players Benny made his show into one of the all-time great radio comedies, portraying him as likeable character, despite being vain, argumentative and a skinflint.
