Synopsis

Programme featuring Liverpudlian stand-up comedian Johnny Hackett as he prepares for a show at Blackpool's Horseshoe Theatre. He recalls his memories of playing there in 1964 and tells some jokes to the camera (one of which is racist). There are brief shots of Blackpool seafront, Hackett in the canteen with other performers, in his dressing room and rehearsing on stage.
