Reynolds Cutforth came from Woodville, Burton on Trent, and was educated at Denstone College which he entered in September 1922. His first job was with the Midland Bank. Having seen service in the Army in Ethiopia, Eritrea and the Western Desert Campaign, and having been a prisoner of war in Italy and Germany, he joined the BBC in 1946. He became well known as a broadcaster and travelled the world as a BBC correspondent. He reported on the Korean War. Reviewing one of his programmes, The Forties Revisited, the critic Clive James wrote in The Observer: "Cutforth is that rare thing, a front man with background. Fitzrovia and Soho weigh heavily on his eye lids. His voice sounds like tea-chests full of books being shifted about. Ref AAA4.

VG/VG.** "René Cutforth (1909 -1984) was a British journalist, television and radio broadcaster and writer. His first job was a clerk with the Midland Bank. In World War II he saw active service as a commissioned officer with the British Army in Ethiopia, Eritrea, and fought in the Western Desert Campaign, where he was taken prisoner of war in 1941, spending the remainder of the war in prisoner of war camps in Italy and Germany. He joined the British Broadcasting Corporation on return to England in 1946, and became a well known broadcaster and travelled the world as a BBC correspondent. He reported on the Korean War. During his television broadcast career he wrote and produced several documentary series, including, Bird's Eye View (a televisual study of the British Isles from the air), and The British Empire - Echoes of Britannia's Rule . Reviewing one of Cutforth's television programmes entitled The Forties Revisited, the critic Clive James wrote in The Observer: "Cutforth is that rare thing, a front man with background. Fitzrovia and Soho weigh heavily on his eyelids. His voice sounds like tea-chests full of books being shifted about.".He died in his 76th year at Great Maplestead, in the county of Essex on 1 April 1984." (wiki).
