Entertainment Radio "Life with Dexter" was a very popular Australian radio comedy program that aired from the 1950s through to the mid-1960s. Here's a breakdown of the show: Premise: The show revolved around the daily happenings of the Dutton household, featuring the lovable and often bumbling patriarch, Dexter Dutton, his somewhat sharp-tongued wife Kessie (also known as Jessie), and their two children, Janie and Ashley (also known as Ashleigh). It was known for its humorous take on everyday family situations. Star and Creator: The show starred Willie Fennell as Dexter Dutton, and he was also the creator of the series. Production: "Life with Dexter" was recorded at the 2GB Sydney radio auditorium in front of a live audience each Wednesday evening. Broadcast: It was broadcast across Australia through the Macquarie Broadcasting Network and also reached audiences in New Zealand and South Africa. Cast: Besides Willie Fennell, other notable cast members included Margaret Christensen, Moya O'Sullivan, Diana Perryman, and Margo Lee (who all played Jessie at different times), Ray Hartley (as Ashley), and Amber Mae Cecil and Beryl Marshall (who played Janie). Kevin Brennan and Harry Harper were also part of the cast. Legacy: The show was a significant part of the "golden age of radio" in Australia. Willie Fennell even wrote a series of books collecting the scripts of the radio show. You can still find recordings and podcasts of "Life with Dexter" episodes today, often presented as "classic radio" content.
