#95: Thames, Christmas Day 1979

A trailer for the evening - that was the last George & Mildred thanks to Yootha Joyce's death, by the way, and Morecambe & Wise was a clip and chat show because of Eric's health problems - followed by adverts mostly for sales but also Patricia Hayes, Barry Sheene and an in-character Michael Crawford plugging Texaco. It's Peter Marshall inviting us into his festive drawing room introducing the news with Anna Ford, who gets thrown by the bulletin ending, and then doing the world's slowest 3-2-1 gesture.
