Lady Penelope’s 1960s
Cool people and television programmes: Scott Walker, Gene Pitney, Paul Jones, Hayley Mills, David Jacobs, Cilla Black, Ringo Starr, Mick Jagger, The Monkees, and The Man From UNCLE.
Interestingly, Thunderbirds and The Man From UNCLE often overlapped on the early evening TV schedules with Thunderbirds on ITV and The Man From UNCLE on BBC1.
Regular schedules: Tomorrow’s World, Top of the Pops and The Man From UNCLE v Thunderbirds and Danger Man.
@HannahHowe Back when choosing one really did mean missing the other.
@HannahHowe So much classic stuff. One of the oddest "lost" pieces of late 60s TV is Scott Walker on Cilla Black's TV show. Shame about Cilla on this but hey it was the 60s & Scott Walker was in his commercial phase:
