ITMA  was  a character-driven comedy whose satirical targets included    government  departments and the ostensibly petty wartime regulations.    Parts of the  shows were re-written in the hour before the broadcast,   to  ensure its  topicality. The show broke away from the conventions  of   previous radio  comedies, and from the humor of the music halls.
It's That Man Again (commonly contracted to ITMA) a Radio     Comedy  programme which ran over twelve series from 1939 to 1949. The     shows featured Tommy Handley in the central role, a fast-talking    figure,  around whom all the other characters orbited. The programmes    were  written by Ted and produced by Francis Worsley. Handley died    during the  twelfth series, the remaining programmes of which were    immediately  cancelled: ITMA could not work without him, and no  further   series were  commissioned.
