Nothing like it had ever been seen on television. It was topical, satirical, open-ended and above all irreverent, at a time when establishment figures expected respect from mere broadcasters. TW3 conferred instant stardom on its host David Frost and the rest of its then youthful cast. In tonight's compilation, Bernard Levin delivers his own brand of invective and Millicent Martin sings topical songs, while
Roy Kinnear , Willie Rushton , Lance Percival , Kenneth Cope and David Kernan hone their wit on the week's news.
