In her teens she progressed to regular and legendary appearances on BBC Variety Bandbox, holding her own against fellow performers such as Billy Ternent and Eddie Calvert. It was during this period that she was the only female trumpeter in the world to broadcast Haydn's Trumpet Concerto. At the time when her contemporaries were breaking into the new medium of television, Hinde never did, most likely due to ineffective management. Instead, she forged a reputation on the live variety stage becoming a regular fixture with artistes such as Elsie and Doris Waters, Jimmy James and Co., Gladys Morgan, The Black and White Minstrel Show, Max Bygraves, Harry Secombe and Ken Dodd. It was with Secombe that she travelled to entertain the British armed forces during various conflicts, including the Falklands and Aden.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Postcard Finder","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56233805742406,"sku":"187483","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/3216\/9030\/files\/joan-hinde-trumpet-player-of-ken-dodd-10x8-hand-signed-photo-more-187483-p.jpg?v=1774262217","url":"https:\/\/postcardfinder.co.uk\/products\/joan-hinde-trumpet-player-of-ken-dodd-10x8-hand-signed-photo-more","provider":"Postcard Finder","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
