Welcome to Mudcat, Jim! As for the second part of your query, I remember the Syncopated Lady song and I thought at the time that it was in the style of Fats Waller. A quick Google shows that the Victoria & Albert Museum, Department of Theatre and Performance, hold a quantity of Ronnie Barker's old scripts, including one called Fats Waller Song, which he wrote under his usual pseudonym of Gerald Wiley. Script V & A details Hope this is useful! Cheers LFF
