This was purchased primarily as a sample of Ginger Rogers' TV work on the Bob Hope specials. Ginger didn't disappoint, as her work is always completely entertaining! Just always wish more Ginger were included. The Bob Hope Special is typical Hope of the period. Oh, if we ONLY had anything like this today!!! The second offering on the disk is a Sherlock Holmes mystery, which is OK, but not a piece I found particularly gripping. Also included is a Mantovani Christmas audio recording, which is great to listen to for mindless listening while working on the computer. This is a good disk to own if you like the Bob Hope Christmas specials.
Bob Hope Christmas shows are always good. The sketch with Ginger was funny but it would have been nice to have seen the whole show. Her dance number and some other parts were left out. Maybe not available due to quality of tape or film. Heda Hopper was okay but I am sure there must have been more to her appearance too!
Good quality for black and white shows.
