@RetroCaptain: Thank you, to a fellow native of the CKNX coverage area. The strange fact is, this WAS top-class entertainment, but attitudes changed some time in the late 60s/early 70s. Don Messer was the biggest casualty. Either those that ran TV, or we in the audience, wanted more glitz and flash. Because we didn't appreciate what we had, we deserve what we ended up getting.
Good day
Wow this was on Channel 8
I was a schoolboy in Southampton back then....
I wish TV were like this now instead of the half naked circus that is considered
top grade entertainment
Well I had a little opportunity back then to see quality..
Thanks for posting!
