Behind the scenes at “The Frost Report” in 1966. Don’t if anyone may recognise themselves?

Warwick Cross

Am I correct in thinking it’s Julie Felix on piano ?

John Howell

The only thing I recognised was the C28 mic in the boom, too murky to see much else!

Gary Critcher

Yes, apologies about that, I’d hoped it would be a bit more interesting.

I wonder what it was shot for.

Geoff Fletcher

It looks like a non-cameraman trying out a new camcorder except they weren’t around then (or were they?). All that zooming and crappy framing – very amateurish.

Alec Bray

Remember that at this time, we were under pain of dismissal to take cameras into the Studios.  Sometimes we smuggled in a camera – but had to be very cautious about taking pictures. These images  are reminiscent of stills of mine taken during TW3 rehearsals.
