The Northallerton Wartime Weekend was a success in which Derek played no small part as both Winston Churchill and a George Formby Tribute.- Northallerton Wartime Weekend
What an entertaining and enjoyable George Formby Tribute Derek performed for the Christmas meeting creating a true festive spirit! - Highly recommended
- North Staffs Women's Conservatives
Derek Herbert made a valuable and entertaining contribution to the Liverpool Blitz 70 Event There is no doubt about Dereks competence. Derek switched several times from the commanding persona of Winston Churchill to the cheeky chappy musician, George Formby. Those 1940s jaunty classics were delightfully entertaining which Derek replicated so well.
