Mr. Wednesday
It takes quite a lot of behind-the-scenes work to get The Wednesday Show on the air each week. All the planning is done in a small office bursting at the seams with people. On the wall a chart lists past and possible future guests - famous names ranging from Enoch Powell to Daliah Lavi and taking in people like Baroness Stocks and Kenneth Williams en route. David Jacobs is there looking very informal without a tie, contributing as much as anyone to the discussion.
He's done his homework carefully for one of the subjects to be discussed on next week's show and is trying to think of someone from his enormous range of show-business friends and acquaintances who'd be suitable to talk about it. 'What we really need,' he says thoughtfully, 'is a head of state!'
Topicality is a keynote of The Wednesday Show. If anything interesting crops up at the last minute, then one of the other items is postponed to make room for it. Which means that each week the whole team, David Jacobs included, can never sit back and think the show is organised right up till the time the opening music starts.
What's new today for those interested in tomorrow.
Introduced by Raymond Baxter.

Having beaten the Hungarian side one-nil in August, Leeds United tonight play the second leg of this two-match Final at the Nep Stadium, Budapest.
Leeds have made a great start to the new English season, adding goal-scoring flair to their renowned defensive qualities, but this match represents a tremendous test.
Is a one-goal lead big enough to hold one of the strongest clubs in European football?
