Bill Pertwee war ein britischer Komödiant, bekannt auch aus Film, Fernsehen und Rundfunk, der hier die sogenannten "seaside shows" vorstellt.

On the beaches and promenades a vast potential audience had congregated with no regular entertainment provides for them. It was the pierrots who first produced an organised form of seaside show, quickly establishing themselves with their distinctive costume. Gradually the pierrots became more and more professional, until in the 1920s one troupe, 'The Co-optimists', took London by storm and played there for six years."
