Radio broadcasting was the cheapest form of entertainment, and it provided the public with far better entertainment than most people were accustomed to. As a result, its popularity grew rapidly in the late 1920s and early 1930s, and by 1934, 60 percent of the nation's households had radios.

Bulldog Drummond

Bulldog Drummond

Broadcast History: 13 April 1941 to 12 January 1949 and 3 January 1954 to 28 March 1954

“Out of the fog… out of the night… and into his American adventures… comes… Bulldog Drummond!” The signature is accompanied by echoing footsteps followed by a foghorn, two ominous shots and three blows of a whistle.

Hugh Drummond is the urbane British police inspector, known for his indefatigable pursuing of criminals. The show was initially set in Britain but the detective soon moves west to tackle killers and counterfeiters across the pond. The immensely popular Bulldog will not let anything get in the way of his crime-solving and, as a result, he is successful in relieving America’s streets of some ruthless thugs.
