Overview
A 2-for-1 cartoon special offer that you can’t help pick up. Long before Bob Godfrey and writer Stan Hayward collaborated on Henry’s Cat, this independent adult short twinned their special gifts. Bob draws and voices “Masks”, a story about finding marriage through melancholy with a kick in the tail. The second part “Happenings” features the distinctive vocal talents of Ronnie Barker and Deryck Guyler.
