The Great Glass Hive

Bernie Newnham

Long ago – 1974 – I worked on “The Great Glass Hive”, a fifty minute CSO piece by Ken Corden about the Crystal Palace. Good fun to work on, and I rescued one of the backgrounds which I still have.

I’ve just watched it again, courtesy of one of our number – still good fun. One thing I’d forgotten was the end credit sequence, and here are some stills from it. Of course, as ever in those days, those of us pointing cameras didn’t get a look in.
