'''''And So to Bentley''''' was a British BBC comedy television series, aired in 1954. The scripts were written by [[Denis Norden]] and [[Frank Muir]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.screenonline.org.uk/people/id/1189102/index.html|title=Norden, Denis (1922-)|publisher=Screenonline|accessdate=4 August 2012}}</ref><ref name="RadioTimes">{{cite web|title=And So to Bentley|url=http://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/3e3ab1af15574bed908eb92542c6b249|website=Genome BETA Radio Times 1923 - 2009|publisher=BBC|accessdate=24 February 2018}}</ref> Six episodes were produced, starring
[[Dick Bentley]], [[Peter Sellers]], Rosemary Miller, Charlotte Mitchel and Herbert Mostyn. The series was regarded as a flop.<ref name="Lewis1995">{{cite book|last=Lewis|first=Roger|title=The Life and Death of Peter Sellers|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=biKazcH-dXoC&pg=PA292|accessdate=4 August 2012|year=1995|publisher=Arrow|isbn=978-0-09-974700-0|page=292}}</ref>

Herbert Mostyn was a notional BBC voice actor, created by Muir and Norden, for convenience when they took small acting parts in the BBC radio comedy programmes they had written (and thus earned acting as well as writing fees). Herbert Mostyn was listed in the performing credits for countless BBC radio programs, as Norden admitted in a radio interview of 2013, but otherwise never existed.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b007s6p7|title = BBC Radio 4 Extra - A Taste of Funny with Denis Norden}}</ref>
