Written by N.J. Crisp
A series created by Willis
Starring Jack Warner

Any Sunday morning-but not for two people: the manager of the supermarket and his wife. It is a day they will always remember with terror and dread. And it need not have happened...

(Richard Owens is appearing in 'Cabaret' at the Palace Theatre, London)

starring Val Doonican
with special guests, The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem, Jim Dale, Les Dawson, Marion Davies
The Gojos, The Adam Singers

Tonight the show will have a distinctly Irish flavour when Val welcomes the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem as his guests.
Les Dawson has just finished a successful summer season in Blackpool. Viewers will remember his lugubrious brand of humour-everything happens to him. Singer Marion Davies will do a number with Val, 'The Poor Chinee'. She is a member of the Ladybirds group which backs Dee Time, among other shows. Val's other guest is genial, lanky, Jim Dale.

Written by Marty Feldman and Barry Took
starring Marty Feldman
co-starring John Junkin, Tim Brooke-Taylor
with Roland MacLeod

When this series of comedy shows starring Marty Feldman were first seen earlier this year on BBC-2 the critics were unanimous in their praise for this new comedian extraordinary. Stanley Reynolds, writing in The Guardian of April 30, said: 'Feldman is funny, brilliantly, disarmingly funny,' and Peter Knight, TV critic of the Daily Telegraph, wrote: 'He shows himself to be one of the brightest lights to dawn in the none-too-rich world of TV comedy.'
