Nice clips!
The New Seekers is from Oz circa 71. The clue is the GFK? logo. The Kinks were interviewed on this show when they went for a disaster of a tour in 71.

All the ones with the timecode are from the ITV archive; the rest are from overseas TV shows. The most interesting is the New Seekers promo film.
Nowt missing.

Some great clips there.
Two of them are mentioned in my book 'Look Wot They Dun!':
24-02-73 – ‘Russell Harty Plus’ (UK): Cindy Incidentally (At last having a hit to rival Rod’s solo singles, ‘Cindy Incidentally’ got to No. 2 in the UK charts, though it only reached No. 48 in the US, where it was the group’s final hit)
06-06-72 – ‘Set Of Six’ (UK): Tweedle Dee, Tweedle Dum / Jesus Christ Superstar / Soley Soley / I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself / Sacramento (A Wonderful Town) / The Talk Of All The USA / Samson and Delilah / Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep (Featuring Sally in a white mini-dress, this is a fine live performance through-out, with Andrew Lloyd-Webber’s ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’ and Dusty Springfield’s ‘I Just Don’t Know What To Do With Myself’ being particular highlights)
Here's another song from the show (with original live audio):
Tina Charles is from 'Supersonic', 25-12-76 (taped 19-12-76), the same show as this:

Nice clips! The New Seekers is from Oz circa 71. The clue is the GFK? logo. The Kinks were interviewed on this show when they went for a disaster of a tour in 71. It's actually GTK, short for 'Get To Know', an Australian show that ran from circa 1969 to 1975. Unfortunately, Australia didn't get colour TV until 1976, so this is why everything is in black & white.

Thanks for the info Guy's - Always checking to see if there's something missing out there.

I could be a million miles out here, but didn't the Settlers have their own lunchtime show that came from Border tv...or was that Yorkshire? It may explain the clips origin?

Doesn't help that the poster has called that song THE LIGHTING TREE and not THE LIGHTNING TREE!
ITV do hold 13 eps of SING OUT WITH THE SPINNERS transmitted from 14 Feb 1973 to 04 Apr 1973 and was made by Tyne Tees but that was in colour...
...but this is from THE SOUND OF THE SETTLERS transmitted 4 Apr 1972 made by Border in black & white - the same tape also has a colour show with THE SPINNERS

Good One Mark! Border still making in black and white in 72?

As I say, the same tape has the Settlers in April 1972 in B&W but The Spinners prog recorded in Sept 1972 is Colour... obviously the year they transitioned...

Indeed, I remember the song from that show. Here's another, slightly later, performance, from 'The Morecambe and Wise Show' on 26th January 1973:

I’m pretty sure she featured in a recent episode of Songs Of Praise where her previous occupation was highlighted. I’ve certainly seen her on TV this year.
