![Billy Merson Singing 'Desdemonia'](http://image.tmdb.org/t/p/w185/jwvs5UughgZ6EclSRqZmNkoe1p5.jpg)
Overview:
'Billy Merson, the great Nottingham-born music hall performer, presents one of his signature numbers. The film clearly captures Merson's comic brilliance - he not only sings, but dances, skips and indulges in a lot of creative business with a lyre. Merson had been making films since 1915 and Desdemonia is often cited as Britain's first sound film.' (Robin Baker, BFI)
