Jackson 5 - Lookin Through The Window (TOTP)

[Paul Watkins]

At last confirmation that this exists, at least this short clip. Anyone know any more?

Great to see. Thanks for the link.

Possibly another BBC archive 'mis-file' from the early 80s - like Stealers Wheel.

Although as it has a caption on screen to say what it is (and is not the full performance), could this be just an illustrative clip as featured in a documentary of some kind? Just a thought.

[Mark Leech]

Could only find this match for it - could be a possibility?

Yes, could be. Although if it was as late as 1983, you'd expect and hope that the complete clip (or even whole edition it was pulled from) still existed!

Nice video. I missed this thread, so i started my own by mistake. Whoops, sorry Paul.

I have part of an episode of "Eight Days A Week" on video. I'll try and dig it out to see if the captions are the same.

[Neil Barker]

Just had a look at a clip from "Eight Days A Week" and the captions are similar so I reckon it was from that programme.

[Ray Langstone (was saintsray)]

My own thought is that there is somewhere a tape within the BBC of the full clip - unless that (and it would have been a copy) is now wiped.
