Harry Noel Pringle (25 December 1903 – 30 March 1985) was an Australian radio and television producer who worked on light entertainment programmes in England and Australia.

Harry Pringle was the son of Edith Ogilvie Benzley, and Harry Lempriere Pringle (1869, Hobart, Tasmania – 1914, London, England). His father was an operatic bass who sang at Covent Garden, London and the Metropolitan Opera, New York.^[1] Pringle worked in music hall, until in 1937 he became one of the first producers on BBC Television.^{[Note 1][3]: 88–89} Between February 1937 and August 1939, he was credited 112 times as TV producer (nearly six programmes a month), three times as director, and once as editor; he was at the same time producing radio programmes.^{[4][better source needed]}

On 1 September 1939, BBC Television broadcasting was suspended because of the outbreak of World War II, and only resumed in June 1946. In 1940, Pringle relocated to Australia, where he was appointed to take charge of radio light entertainment for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC).^[5] He created Out of the Bag (first broadcast, 31 August 1940), a radio series described by the editor of Wireless Weekly as "the best variety show yet heard here". In June 1941, he moved to 3DB, a commercial radio station in Melbourne. In 1944, he returned to ABC as federal director of light entertainment. In 1946, he resigned to return to the BBC. In 1947, he was reappointed by ABC to his former position. In 1949, he spent six months on leave in England; while there, he produced several more programmes for the BBC. He resigned from the ABC in 1954.^{[3]: 89, 179}

In 1957–59, he produced several programmes for ABC television on a contract basis.^{[3]: 205–206}
