"It's That Man Again", otherwise known as ITMA, was launched in 1939, when the BBC decided that what its radio broadcast needed was a weekly comedy show. The Liverpudlian comedian, Tommy Handley was chosen and with the help of Ted Kavanagh, they created what was to become one of the most popular radio series of the 1940s.The show was named after the phrase newspapers commonly used to describe Hitler; "It's that man again!". Like all other war abbreviations, RAF, ARP, the programme title was turned into initials and named ITMA.(Source : BBC Liverpool Local History)
