TVTimes from November 1969

This is not being featured for the actual picture - Benny Hill - but more for what it represents

This is the cover from the period when independent television transitioned from black and white to colour... but only in three regions [ATV, Granada and London]. Colour would come to the rest of the UK later!

The first edition of the TVTimes for the new year in 1965, with Patrick McGoohan as John Drake: 'Danger Man' on the cover

The episode in question was entitled 'That's Two of Us Sorry', and was the 13th episode of the series. American viewers had to wait until July July 17th before they could see it!


I wonder what a 'TV Tape Recorder' was!

'Look-In' from September 1980

I wonder that the 'Heavy Metal' feature consisted of. Presumably it was bands from the emerging NWoBHM

Can't see 'Smash Hits' promoting something like that on it's front cover!
