The first half of the current Variety programme including Paul Berny, Bertha Wilmott
Edgley and Dawe, Yvonne Arnaud
Televised direct from the London Coliseum
The first outside broadcast from the Coliseum took place on January 13 when Doorlay's Christmas Rocket was televised. It was so successful that the television mobile unit now pays a visit every month to the theatre to pick up an hour of the Variety programme. Three cameras are used, and close-ups bring the stage so near that the quality of the transmission is almost equal to that from the studio.
