Pink Floyd 1968 BBC 2 programmes do they exist?

[williammcgregor]

Hi,

Can any member please shine some light on this Pink Floyd article from Fabulous 208 magazine dated 20th April 1968

as you can see it mentions 2 proposed BBC 2 programmes to be shown in August and September 1968, do you know if they were ever made? if so, do they exist?


I've checked in the book EMBRYO under March and April '68 and can't see anything re the Floyd filming at these locations?

please see attached picture of the article below



cheers William

The Abbey Mills shoot was for Set The Controls, which was used in Tony Palmer's All My Loving film. The other setting seems like the footage used in The Sound Of Change. The Floyd material for both of these exists. Not sure where the idea of either being part of a series comes from though - possibly incorrectly reported?

"Sound of Change" was done in a BBC studio, so the Barnes common one is a bit of a mystery.

Although part of the sequence uses a churchyard setting, which was why I suggested that programme (it seems to be the only thing which might fit the bill in any sense). Possibly the group were initially to be filmed there too maybe?

Thanks Syd and Laurence
