Melly introduced the pioneering late night live jazz programme on the BBC, with these two scripts introducing Bob Wallis and his Storyville Jazzmen, and The Tommy Whittle Quartet. Presumably inspired by his interest in Surrealist spontaneity Melly's rapid sketches - taking in a cast of sailors, prisoners, royalty, etc. - are prompted by the titles of the jazz tunes in the programme; 'Everybody Loves Saturday Night' (group sex), 'Duke's in Bed' (involving a figure in a crown), 'We'll be together again' (under the table activity during a prison visit), 'Combined Effort' (group sex), 'So Do It' (a sailor and an eager man), 'Someday Somehow' (a nude Vanessa Redgrave and excitable Bernard Levin), etc.Provenance: George Melly; family descent.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

The Second World War D.S.O., D.F.C. and bar, D.F.M., Battle of Britain group of seven to Wing Commander W.J. 'Sticks' Gregory, Royal Air Force, Air Interception Radar Operator to the WW2 Night Fighter ace Wing Commander J.R.D.'Bob' Braham,Distinguished Service Order, G.VI.R., dated 1945, in silver-gilt and enamel; Distinguished Flying Cross, G.VI.R., dated 1942, with second award bar, dated 1943; Distinguished Flying Medal, G.VI.R. (75103 F/Sgt W.J.Gregory R.A.F.); 1939-1945 Star with Battle of Britain bar; Atlantic Star with Air Crew Europe bar; War Medal; Air Efficiency Award, G.VI.R. (Flt.Lt W.J.Gregory. RAFVR.). Both bars are later tailor's copies, otherwise very fine to good very fine. (Lot)Footnotes:D.S.O. London Gazette 17.7.1945.Since being recommended for a bar to the Distinguished Flying Cross, this officer has taken part in many operational missions over enemy territory, in the course of which he participated in the destruction of eight enemy aircraft. In June 1943, whist supporting an attack on Cologne, his aircraft was damaged, the port engine being set on fire by enemy fighters. By his skill as a Navigator, Squadron Leader Gregory enabled his pilot to avoid the attacks of the enemy aircraft and assisted him during the return flight. On another occasion, he and his pilot engaged two enemy fighters in a combat which lasted 25 minutes, destroying one of the enemy. In May 1944 Squadron Leader Gregory assisted his pilot to destroy a Focke Wulf 190 while returning from a sortie against Aalborg. Shortly afterwards, the aircraft was severely damaged by a Messerchmitt 109. With their petrol draining rapidly from the damaged tanks, they attempted to fly the aircraft to base, but were forced down on the North Sea and were picked up after 30 minutes by a Naval vessel. For the past seven months, this officer has fulfilled his duties of Station Navigation Officer, in which capacity his experience and advice have been most valuable.D.F.C. London Gazette 4.8.1942.This officer has taken part in the destruction of six enemy aircraft at night. He has shown great skill and devotion to duty.Bar to the D.F.C. London Gazette 16.7.1943.As observer, this officer has completed much operational flying and, by his outstanding ability, has proved himself to be a most valuable member of aircraft crew. By his personal example, tuition and zeal, Flight Lieutenant Gregory has contributed materially to the high standard of efficiency of the observers of his squadron. Since being awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross he has taken part in many sorties and has contributed to the destruction of at least 4 enemy aircraft.D.F.M. London Gazette 17.10.1941.In August 1940, Flight Sergeant Gregory whilst flying in a Blenheim with the late Pilot Officer Rhodes on a night patrol, intercepted a Heinkel 111 which Rhodes over-shot and Gregory, with great coolness, gave the enemy aircraft a long burst from the beam gun with a single Vickers gas-operated gun, destroying the enemy aircraft. Again, in July, 1941, by quick and accurate work on the A.I., he enabled Flt.Lt.J.R.D.Braham, D.F.C., to destroy a Junkers 88 at 6,000 feet in the Thames Estuary and again on 12th September, 1941, although his pilot was apparently overtaking an enemy aircraft very rapidly, by clear and precise instructions, he enabled his pilot to destroy yet another enemy aircraft. Flight Sergeant Gregory has been in the Squadron since 19th May 1940, during which time he has always shown great keenness to contact the enemy and has been an inspiration to the other operators. I therefore most strongly recommend him for the award of the Distinguished Flying Medal.Air Efficiency Award London Gazette 21.3.1946.The lot additionally comprises: The framed warrant for the Distinguished Service Order; two RAF log books one of which is his official one whilst the second is a mirror of the first but with further information and 'extra flights' throughout his flying career; Warrant for promotion to Flight Lieutenant dated 16th February 1949; Caterpillar club badge engraved on reverse (Sgt W.J.Gregory); Caterpillar Club badge engraved on reverse (Sgt W.Gregory Pres by Irvin Co); Silk handkerchief; Caterpillar club membership card; Goldfish club membership card; Bullet marked cigarette case engraved internally (W.J.G.) this was one of his father's most treasured possessions where fighting over Dunkirk this case no doubt saved his life (newspaper article states); two silver plated dishes given to him by the Officers and NCO's of 29 Squadron on the occasion of his marriage; R.A.F. shields for 29, 141 and 926 Squadrons; a photograph frame made from the tip of a pre WW2 aeroplane with photograph of him in uniform; a letter relating to his visit to Buckingham Palace dated 20th November 1942; a letter relating to his D.S.O. dated 19th September 1946; A signed Guildhall reception booklet dated 22nd July 1980 with signatures including Bob Stanford-Tuck, James 'Ginger' Lacey, John Cunningham; An R.A.F.
