I've been discussing a piece someone recalled. Mid 1970s, a man looking at a painting in a gallery, the world of which into the camera takes us, with real actors in costumes as depicted.
I think this was in an edition of LWTs 'AQUARIUS' magazine & arts show. The piece had been billed as 'a dramatisation based on the art of Heironymous Bosch'. Dated around 1974 or 75 I think. The only scene I recall was where a procession of figures in period costume march across the top of a hill, then seen in distant silhouette. One figure was wheeling a harp. Another had an inverted funnel on his head as in some of Boschs paintings.
The other early memories I have are: one where I'm sure a pregnant lady was seen at the front of a stage, as in a drama singing a song 'Ezebels a Jezebel' ? I didn't understand it. Could have been something from a stage show. Seem to recall Humphrey Barclay making a verbal link after it, around 1970.
The third memory was of D.J. Kenny Everett as a 'roving reporter' driving around the country. Shot from the interior of his car with him talking over music he liked. This included a Fairport Convention instrumental he had selected for use in his own series 'Kenny Everett Explosion' and 'Ev'.
I wondered if anyone has any idea what the Archive for the show is like, and can add to my descriptions?
