    ATV's taster for US audiences
    The UK TV company ATV had a shot at promoting their artists in America when One of the networks CBS I think linked up with ATV giving them air time in the summer to deliver an entertainment show that would hopefully appeal to audiences on both sides of the Atlantic, hence the shows were a mix of British and American stars. A mix of singing performances and comedy sketches with hosts including Benny Hill (well before he became wildly popular in the US) Phil Silvers and Tom Jones. These specials were very typical of their time, big budget extravaganza's made in colour even though the British commercial channel was still broadcasting in monochrome. fortunately some still survive albeit mainly in black and white, although there are rumours of colour copies in the American UCLA archive.US archive
