1969 UK TV pilot for a chauvinistic men's interest program called (what else?) 'Mainly for Men'.
So bad it went unaired for over 20 years; with segments like the godawful music number at around 5:55, no surprise it only got shown on a program called 'TV Hell'.

Not a surprise to anyone who saw his abysmal 'How Do You Know', but James L. Brooks 'Ella McCay' is battling with Rob Reiner's Spinal Tap sequel as the year's most unnecessary film by a director who peaked last century.

Some late night breaking news ....
At least 2 television VFL broadcast reels, from the 1960s and 70s, have been found in a shed in Melbourne.
*Initial* inspection appears to show they could be finals broadcasts previously thought lost
Will know more in the coming week/s
