I think this was Thursday night with Michael Mikes Wuiz show on Friday. I also thought Green a bit creepy.

Do we know what Hughie Green was paid for each episode ? Probably more than the top prize of £32 .... Like many other people, I never had a great liking for him and his style - and I mean that most sincerely...

Great find because I was reading a book about this fraud, Hughie Green, just recently. That last child opening scene was white but "blacked up" Unlikely in today's Woke world, where you can't even offend the cat 😂 People there? Not pretentious on this show compared to todays lot.

Only £32! I thought first, then I calculate it to be worth about £650 in today's money. TV was still in it's infancy in 1954 and maybe ITV first had ordinary members of the public on air. Does anyone know if the BBC had this sort of entertainment at the time. I was only 9 in 1954 and my memory quite unreliable.
