Thanks for the heads up. Sorry, I thought you meant it was on one of the UKTV channels (e.g. DAVE or YESTERDAY).
I was unable to find it, even searching the UKTV website.
I have now found it on a channel called Talking Pictures (which is 445 on Virgin) and the program is called 'Glimpses'.
I'm easily confused!

Cheers

Kevin

Just watched this prog and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was very atmosphreric and I imagine was rather avant garde for the time.
Oh how the world has changed since then. *-) EricT

Kevin, I can see how Hobby threw you off the trail with this:

That would have steered me towards UKTV too. :agree:
.....but I'm so tech savvy, I'm having trouble with the electronic key for the car on loan from our son in law. :help:

Did you see me in the show? I used to go there late 50s early 60s. :hide:
