Here's Johnny! is like sitting with Ed and Johnny over lunch.



Brilliant in front of the camera but shy in person, Johnny Carson seldom gave interviews. But no one knew

him better than Ed McMahon, Carson's personal friend and showbiz sidekick for almost forty years. Now,

with Johnny's blessings before he died, McMahon can finally share all the stories that only he knows. From

the sofa at Johnny's right, to backstage, to their personal relationship, McMahon provides a real picture of

the man who so carefully censored his public image, revealing the caring person within the dynamic star.

Though The Arabian Nights are generally known as stories for children, they were originally tales for adults full of adventure, sexuality, violence and the supernatural.

They certainly inspired the imagination of Sir Richard Burton, the 19th century explorer, linguist and erotologist who brought all his worldly experience and a superbly expressive prose style to bear on the tales of Sindbad the Seaman and Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves. Scheherazade must keep her king entertained with stories if she is to avoid the promised sentence of death.

Philip Madoc's sonorous performance allows the tales to weave their own enchantment as they have done down the centuries.
