1 in the UK in June 1965, the very heart of the Sixties. It’s strange that Sandie Shaw should be associated therewith since I have a post on her at my ‘Girls Of The Golden East’ Blog, entitled ‘A sign of the (TV) Times?’ making a contrast between her prominence in a very racy front-cover photo in a ‘TV Times’ from 1972 and total lack of chart action in the 1970s, which seemed to characterise many of her fellow Brit Girls of the Sixties as we wore into the new decade – a particularly cruel note for Sandie being here that – from one of my Pop ‘Bibles’ ‘The Warner Guide To UK & US Hit Singles’, by Dave McAleer – ‘Long Live Love’ had been the on-the-month No. Sandie Shaw – Long Live Love ( 27 th December 1973 ) In High Definition | Retro British TelevisionĪh! Yet more synchronicity with the world of Valérie Čižmárová – the day of the recording of her pair of soft Seventies Soul swingers, ‘Spousta příběhů’ (‘Lots Of Stories’) and ‘Zrzek’ (‘Redhead’), the former with a very Seventies sitcom signature tune vibe. Since the extensive comments I passed on the videos posted by ‘Retro British Television’ have now themselves disappeared into the ether here they are, copied and pasted out of my email inbox as comments ‘hearted’ by ‘Retro British Television’ for the pleasure of ‘Girls Of The Golden East’ Blog readers. It has been an especial pleasure linking those editions in with the events and personalities relevant specifically to ‘Bananas For Breakfast’, generally to ‘Girls Of The Golden East’ and also to the wider context in which these two Blogs came into existence.
Unfortunately – and this happened literally in front of my very eyes earlier this evening, as I write – this superb channel no longer exists.

Over this past week or so I have been enjoying the offerings on the YouTube channel, ‘Retro British Television’, most especially for the old editions of the classic TV programme, ‘Top Of The Pops’.
