I have found in London Metropolitan Archives a five minute mute film about Sculpture In Battersea Park from 1966.
I have checked in Getty Images (BBC) as it's a BBC film - and they do not appear to have this.
I'm guessing it was from Town and Around or something local:-
""Source Archive:London Metropolitan Archives Title:Sculpture - Battersea Park Date:1966 Format:1 reel 16mm film Colour:Black & White Sound:Mute Duration:5 mins Reference:18728 ; GLC/RA/E2/17/04 Description:BBC TV short film pice about Sculpture in Battersea Park.

I love finds from pre-1963.
Before the Beatles, before the Kennedy assassination, before the Pill, before BBC2....my knowledge about general history of this island isn't all that.
So, my discovery of this gem from the early 50's is delightful to me.
"" [no title] 446/1 No date
These documents are held at Walsall Local History Centre
201-244 'August Bank Holiday Roundup', BBC Television Children's Newsreel footage of children playing in Walsall Arboretum Silent, black & white (Ends at time code: 00: 14: 18: 18), 1950's;""
The film has been transferred to VHS.
I know it's silent, but I just love the 1950's finds....pre-history to me!

Curious find this - I did actually spot this a few years ago....
""Material Type: Videorecording Notes: Compilation of rehearsal and television/motion picture footage. The first three items (Pas de quatre, Raymonda, and La bayadère) recorded in rehearsal, in rehearsal clothes, in the André Eglevsky Studio in Massapequa, Long Island, New York, ca. 1966; performed by members of the Eglevsky Ballet. Description: 2 videocassettes. 57 min. : sd., b&w NTSC. ; 3/4 in. (U-matic) Contents: Cassette 1 (25 min. total): Pas de quatre (approx. 16 min.). Choreography: Anton Dolin, staged by Barbara Fallis. Music: Cesare Pugni. Danced by Marina Eglevsky, Leslie Peck, Bevin Gilmore, and an unidentified woman, possibly Alba Calzada. The first section is recorded twice. -- Raymonda: Excerpt (approx. 2 min.). Choreography: Alexandra Danilova after Marius Petipa. Music: Alexander Glazounov. Danced by Leslie Peck. -- La bayadère: Excerpt (approx. 1 min.). Choreography: Danilova after Petipa. Music: Ludwig Minkus. Female variation from Act IV, The kingdom of the shades, danced by Peck. -- Fragment of a performance by Native American dancers, telecast on the Ed Sullivan Show, CBS-TV. -- Le corsaire pas de deux (approx. 4-1/2 min.). Telecast on the Ed Sullivan Show on May 29, 1966. Danced by Patricia McBride and Edward Villella of the New York City Ballet. Coda incomplete. Visual image extremely poor, due to tape deterioration. -- Cassette 2 (32 mi. total): Fragment of conclusion of Le corsaire pas de deux. -- Behind the scenes with the Royal Ballet: Excerpt (approx. 21 min.). Motion picture released in 1965. Produced, directed, and written by Jon Voyantzis. Executive producer: Peter Snell. Telecast on BBC 1, London, on April 14, 1966. Documentary on the Royal Ballet, London. Includes rehearsal footage of Frederick Ashton's Monotones, danced by Anthony Dowell, Vyvyan Lorrayne, and Robert Mead; and Kenneth. MacMillan's Romeo and Juliet, with Margot Fonteyn and Rudolf Nureyev alternating with Lynn Seymour and Christopher Gable in the principal roles. Includes interviews with Ashton, who is also seen rehearsing Monotones; designer Nicholas Georgiadis is also seen at work on Romeo and Juliet. -- Fragment of "Volga boat song" number telecast on the London Palladium show on July 31, 1966; performed by Millicent Martin and the Paddy Stone Dancers. -- Black swan pas de deux (approx. 10 min.). Telecast on the London Palladium show on July 31, 1966. Choreography: Rudolf Nureyev after Marius Petipa. Music: Peter Tchaikovsky. Danced by Nureyev and Svetlana Berisova.""
Now, the fact that was confusing me was the broadcast date....
Nureyev appeared on the London Palladium Show (in its' varying forms) a number of times, but after some digging, I have ascertained it is this episode:-
""Missing episode in programme THE LONDON PALLADIUM SHOW.
Series 2 06.11.66 with Fess Parker, Rudolf Nureyev & Svetlana Beriosova, Dickie Henderson, The Seekers, Dave Allen (missing)""
With Millicent Martin, it's not that simple....
""THE LONDON PALLADIUM SHOW: with Cliff Richard and The Shadows, Millicent Martin, Ray Fell, Mac Ronay, The Pusztai Troupe (09.10.66) THE LONDON PALLADIUM SHOW: with Frank Ifield, Michael Bentine, Millicent Martin, Robert Harbin, Jonathan Winters (30.10.66) THE LONDON PALLADIUM SHOW: with Hugh O'Brien, The Dallas Boys, The Gang Show, Millicent Martin, Des O'Connor (23.10.66) THE LONDON PALLADIUM SHOW: with Kate Smith, Morecambe and Wise, Tom Jones, Bob Monkhouse, Millicent Martin (02.10.66) THE LONDON PALLADIUM SHOW: with Roger Moore, Morecambe and Wise, The Bachelors, Joe Brown, Millicent Martin (27.11.66)""
All of the above are missing. Note 'Behind the Scenes with the Royal Ballet' exists.
The footage is at the New York Public Library.

Possibly these 1966 Palladium shows were the ones which were shot in 525 line colour for screening in the U.S. (which happened around then), which may explain why they're in the states. It's also possible that colour masters exist in a library there somewhere, as with a lot of colour VT material shot here for U.S. consumption at that time.

This is not a 'find' (at all) it's just a note....50% of you will know about this anyway.... These two Clapperboards:- ""13.10.75 Gerry Anderson 1 (missing) 20.10.75 Gerry Anderson 2 (missing)"" have been released on DVD....read this.... catacombs.space1999.net/main/pguide/wreftvcb.htmlThis news is NINE years old (BBC vidiprinter style N-I-N-E), but I've listed this in this thread, so people are aware of it (and, I hear, a thoroughly good Network release....)

Rather oddly they appear to also exist as B/W TRs ....yet shown on the premier 'color' station NBC www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAmsJ2As7Ug

Thank you Laurence and Peter.
I'm glad some of them exist in some form - be it 'color' or monochrome!

And here's another - the tx date is US, I think. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsTqWqL2-VY""Missing episode in programme THE LONDON PALLADIUM SHOW. Series 2 02.10.66 with Kate Smith, Morecambe and Wise, Tom Jones, Bob Monkhouse, Millicent Martin (missing)""

It seems there's probably enough thought-missing episodes still out there for a volume three of Network's London Palladium DVD series, if someone saw fit to seek them out!

A curious (accidental) find this.... This is (according to the poster) from the 1970 series one more time, and features Mike Redway - he that was not only the guy who sang the Postman Pat theme, but also is one of the backing vocalists on the Beatles 'I am the Walrus' - singing 'Windmills of Your Mind'. If this is correct, it's an important find, in terms of the show, because NONE of it survives officially. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojEA5VbwuVg""Missing or incomplete episodes for programme ONE MORE TIME!. 26.05.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 06.07.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 13.07.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 20.07.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 27.07.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 03.08.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 10.08.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 17.08.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 24.08.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 31.08.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 07.09.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 14.09.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 21.09.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 28.09.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 05.10.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 12.10.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 19.10.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 26.10.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) 02.11.70 with Kiki Dee, Heathmore, Lois Lane, Jackie Lee, Mike Redway (missing) All 19 episodes are missing.""

That's a forgotten one Ray! As you say an inportant one if it exists. Kiki Dee was a Motown artist at this time IIRC and Jackie Lee was doing her ' Rupert' stretch LOL Jackie Lee has a website if its any help?

I will do some investigations.
Yep, Kiki Dee was a few years away from being famous then, she was at Tamla Motown.
