Quick On The Draw - Osbert Lancaster
4 Extra Debut. Cartoonist Sir Osbert Lancaster talks to Derek Cooper about making social and political comments through drawing. From 1972.
Cartooning mattered to Sir Osbert Lancaster, although he also did stage design and architecture.
If he was very lucky, he would get an idea in the bath.
At other times, he would still be waiting for inspiration an hour before his topical cartoon was due to be handed to his editor.....
Sir Osbert is most famous for working many years with the Daily Express newspaper.
Interviewer: Derek Cooper
First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in April 1972.
