Radio review – Lux – “The Road to Morocco” (1943) ***1/2

The free-wheeling style of the Road movies adapts brilliantly to radio in this highly enjoyable adaptation. Bing and Bob are here, but not Dorothy Lamour – she’s replaced by someone called Ginny Tims (or something). The two stars play their characters doing a radio broadcast, kidding around with Cecil B de Mille in character. They are bright and engaging; there is some non-PC humour about Arab languages.
