Lloyd Robertson on Royal Canadian Air Farce

One of the most memorable Air Farce sketches ever!

Our annual New Year's Eve specials always attracted a lot of special guests to the Air Farce studio. On December 31, 1998, Lloyd Robertson returned to CBC airwaves after 22 years at CTV for a very special newscast, just one year before the "millennium."

As Lloyd steps down from CTV, Air Farce wishes him the very best. From all of us, Lloyd, may the Farce be with you!

(Only 12 years later, Lloyd was back with us on our New Year's Eve special. Check out the 2010 guest appearance on Air Face here: http://youtu.be/UhpvEpJ-apI)

CBC/Air Farce THANK YOU for uploading this. As Lloyd steps down after 60 years in broadcasting this episdode came to mind. While he started his career on CBC, he spent most of his time on that "other" network. Thank you for posting this in tribute to his career and Kudos to the whole team on the professionalism between the networks.
