Re 284 Object Z returns. I know this has been discussed before but Object Z was a seriously good kids sci-fi programme with a plot that was always intriguing and occasionally scary (to 10 year olds). I had also forgotten until watching the recent attempt at updating Are You Being Served that Trevor "Mr Lucas" Bannister was a lead actor in the series.

Re 303 Singing and Searching. Martin Carthy is still turning out some great music and the legendary Dave Swarbrick only passed away a few months ago.

Hi Paul,

I did'nt realise that Trevor Bannister was in Object Z thanks for letting me know.

The Object Z series from 1965 exists complete in the archive

But all 6 episodes of the Object Z Returns series from 1966 are missing!!? (strange)

Here is the TV Times schedule for Object Z Returns on the 22/02/66...

Meanwhile here is a wee article from the TV Times mentioning the Object Z Returns series of 1966 returning...

A further note William.

The 1 inch C version is probably the transmission copy for CH4 in the 1980s
and the Betacams are just copies of that to give it access to more modern machinery.
Dave Clark probably has the original telerecording or 405 line VT?

A Swinging Scene

www.lostshows.com/default.aspx?search=swinging+scene

25 February A Swinging Scene Episode 1 Neil McCallum 35 minutes

If we look at the lostshows entry for this show, it can be seen that the casts are a mixture of singers/actresses
and actors. The dates on the lostshows entry are for the Rediffusion Television region.
It was a Rediffusion Television Production.
All 6 episodes were introduced by Neil McCallum and usually of 35 minutes duration.
One of the writers was Ronnie Cass and the executive producer was Buddy Bregman, 2 people usually
associated with Light Entertainment programmes, so it is just possible this was a form of Light Entertainment,
Louie Ramsay listed on the lostshows entry was previously a presenter on the Five O Clock Club.
All 6 episodes were directed by Bimbi Harris, again a previous director of Five O Clock Club.

Not much is known about this Show, so can anyone please add any further information?

Object Z

Below is a small article from The Edinburgh Evening News and Dispatch TV page on the 16/10/65. 3 days before the start of the first series...

New Science Fiction serial for the young viewer

A new science fiction serial - aimed at children, but no doubt to be watched by many an adult - begins on Tuesday at 5:25pm. The title is - "Object Z"

Far out in space, a strange object appears and heads straight for Earth. If it hits our planet millions will be wiped out. Can anything be done? That is how the series starts. The first episode is set in a Canadian observatory, where the phenomenon is spotted. The British prime minister is informed, and the world starts to unite to prevent total destruction. Come to think of it, that would'nt be such a bad idea!

[John Green]

Looks as though Dodie West's IMDB page could do with an update! www.imdb.com/name/nm3081497/

[williammcgregor]

Number 287

EDIT/UPDATE

if we look at the last BFI filmographic record for The Hidden Hand it has a date of 4/5/66,
there is an on-line television schedule for ITV Tuesday 3 May 1966 which ends with 00.05 am

The Hidden Hand
Francis Hoyland talks about Childlike Poetry of the Spirit

That transmission time of 00.05 am is 5 minutes after midnight on 3 May, so it would actually have been
seen at the beginning of Wednesday 4 May which ties in nicely with the BFI filmographic record.

297 World War

this is not on Lostshows

Wednesday 3 August 11.12 - 11.42 World War by A.J.P. Taylor
No. 4: Great Britain's War Produced by Sheila Gregg Rediffusion Production
The British people were determined to stop Hitler, but had no idea how to do it.
First they counted on the French Alliance. When France fell, Great Britain held out -
Hitler's first setback. The British then hoped to defeat Germany by bombing. They
launched a campaign against Italy in the Mediterranean. Britain's great historic
service was to keep the war going until Russia and America were drawn in. After
this, Churchill held the Grand Alliance together. The Medititerranean campaign was
carried to a triumphant conclusion, though the Far East was lost. The Americans
joined in invading north-west Europe. By the end of the war, Great Britain managed
to remain a power - but only just.

Wednesday 10 August 11.7 - 11.37 World War by A. J. P. Taylor
No.5: Italy's War
Mussolini knew that Italy was in no state to fight a great war. He meant to stay out
and entered only when he thought that it was over. He failed against Greece; lost
Abyssinia; and together Great Britain and Ameriaca conquered all North Africa. Italy
was kept going only by German assistance. When Mussolini urged Hitler to make

partisans fighting on the Allied side enabled Italy to become a solid democratic
community, free from Fascism. Produced by Sheila Gregg Rediffusion Production
