Finally realised I never saw Rediffusion's OBJECT Z in 1965 because it was on opposite BBC1's science magazine TOM TOM, which was shown after ROBINSON CRUSOE and before THE MAGIC ROUNDABOUT - a pretty solid line-up. So glad #BFI have now released the OBJECT Z DVD!

Obviously - in U.K. - it’s all about Thunderbirds

But overseas Stingray making a “fall” debut ..

Had readers bought into more b/w we could have had better annuals

The photogauve process not available for those..

Timed for the 1965 airings of Stingray

Produced in a manner other printers could handle?

But also, exploring ways could make annuals better?

The latter fails cos demand was for colour.. and I don’t think anyone was happy with the processes had to produce the annuals by

My family switched over our first colour - a lot

The tube died in five years

They make AI so time consuming to turn off..

I’m sick of the misinformation

I used to just laugh and scroll down for the given article I was looking for in first place..

Now I cannot bear to see it

Switching over and back was brave!!!

A real highlight of the week

I had elderly relatives that preferred you left it on one or other

At least for a few hours..

As the norm

In the main

Stay on one given perceived fragility of these TVs and “worries about the tube”

My Da still said this in the very late 70s…

Friday probably merited a single switch

This would be a “treat” at weekends

I’ve heard people tell me about it 😆

I just noticed a typo on my time entry for Army Game

Brave of ITV to put it directly opposite Hancock

No advance start or anything..

Friday 1959

It’s not been dull

Has it?

I loathe boxing but I’m really annoyed by that ITV play, lost
