[78-L] Singer on Early BBC TV

[John Wright]

Thanks for that, right we don't know who was first or last in the trio. Yes
Peggy Cochrane became a star in Britain, particularly on the radio, and
there's a few film clips too.
I wouldn't say Peggy Cochrane 'joined' Jack Jackson's band, she made a few
records with him. She was more a part of Jack Payne's band late 1930s, I
think she toured with him and certainly married him !  :o)

Merry Christmas to you Kristjan and all on the forum!

Yeah,
In 1931 Mrs de Nys gave birth to her daughter, so either she took a 
time-out from the trio around 1931 or she replaced Peggy Cochrane a few 
years later. By 1933 Peggy Cochrane had her own band, The Troubadours, 
and joined Jack Jackson's orchestra in 1934.
