A programme of gramophone records presented by Scott Goddard
In that almost forgotten song 'The Death of Nelson' the refrain runs ' For England, home, and beauty'. For thousands of men today these things are as significant as they were for. Nelson at Trafalgar. Scott Goddard's gramophone recital has been designed with the intention of showing how British musicians of different kinds and periods have interpreted the sentiments of the man who is parted from his country, his home, and his womenfolk.

This is the second appearance of vivacious Ingrid Lincke. She made her television debut on March 12. A Dane, she came from Denmark to England just before Christmas for an audition with C.B. Cochran. As a result, she is now understudying Gitta Alpar in Cochran's Coronation revue, "Home and Beauty", at the Adelphi. She sings delightfully, and has an attractive foreign accent. She has appeared in musical comedy all over the Continent. Viewers will have another opportunity of seeing her at 9.55.
