The Sweet On London Bridge

[Alan Turrell]

I see in this month's record collector "The Sweet on London Bridge"has been recovered , i personally don't remember seeing this saturday morning show,but it states a filmed segment with Brian Connolly and Andy Scott . To an accompaniment of their then recent top ten hit Fox On The Run ,the duo were seen happily riding the choppy waters at the southmere Boating Centre in Thames Mead,Greenwich.Completely unseen since it's one and only transmission back in 1975.
It Also states that in next month's issue they feature a previously thought lost interview with Marc Bolan again from London Bridge.

both The Sweet and Marc Bolan did a lot of location work for the TV show 'The Dave Cash Radio Programme' in the London and Bristol areas. which was shot around 70/71.
Being a HTV programme it got terrible network treatment form the ITV big boys and some regions never showed it or showed it when the songs were way out of date.

One of the well remembered clips is the Sweet doing Alexander Graham Bell in the Barbican Centre car park.

Thanks Gary for that as I didnt think there was much left of it.
Gene Pitney singing '24 hours from Tulsa' on the M4 was real hoot at the time.
