I can remember Kenneth Wolstenholme saying that he fully expected the 1966 World Cup to be covered by colour cameras but that they were just too slow in bringing them in.

Great news.Dickie Henderson is largely forgotten now but was an excellent entertainer.This show was on the one hand a standard Mr & Mrs sitcom but it also had elements of the absurd that made it stand out.

The Association were great vocalists.They shared the lead vocals around on their records and tried to get a bit heavier in later years.

You can see where Harry Hill got the idea for his oversize shirt collars now.

The Rollers were essentially an early boy band.Young girls were their main fan base.

I saw the Rollers at Liverpool Uni just before they broke big. They were opening for The Troggs. Les sang & also played the violin....quite badly.😎RIP

I have seen these clips before but never in such good quality. That Tony Burrows was a busy boy back in the day.

I was young when watching NHP back in the day & had not appreciated the banter between Lockhart & Baxter.
Also the film inserts from many of the recently shown episodes were made during the big freeze of 1963.....and that was cold.

With regard to the query about the Star Soccer programme ATV showed this in the London region from 1965-1968.When they lost the London franchise LWT took over and at the beginning of the 1968-69 season The Big Match was born. ATV had the midlands franchise so Star Soccer was transferred there until the regional approach to showing soccer highlights ended in 1983. ATV had a very poor record for archiving these shows on the original VT until the mid 70s but many were tele recorded in black & white as exports. Fans of midlands soccer teams can be grateful to The Big Match where their sides were often shown as a second or third game as these excerpts are all that will remain of the original colour VT broadcasts.
