Oh, to go back in time to the 60's and watch decent television shows like The Black and White Minstrel Show.

[@juliebryant6424]

I've just come across these black and white minstrel shows and I'm loving it. I've lost track of how many times I went to see them at Victoria palace. John Boulter was my favorite.

Went on a school trip to London (many years ago) and saw the show at the Victoria Palace. Marvellous entertainment! Thank you for these recordings. 👍

Who plays the bride in the wedding number? She's beautiful.

[@annoldham3018]

@@Aeonterbor I googled her. Apparently she died in a car accident in 1972. How sad.
