For some strange reason, this reminds me of What’s My Line, exact same play.

[@sandybruce9092]

I remember I’ve Got A secret with Gary Moore but not with Steve Allen - couldn’t figure out why! Then I went back and checked the date of this,broadcast - I was in college! The only TV available during those days was in a room at the dorm and we basically only watched Batman!!!

[@JakeMabe1]

Bob Armstrong (second contestant) is from my hometown -- Knoxville, TN!

[@tuner1972]

I worked for Armstrong relocation for 20 years

[@BillyAlabama]

Amazing!

[@bettycogswell9851]

That was gutsy for Steve to do...

[@deggerdagara5818]

Well i say this man Steve Allen is one iron hearted old jockey! I mean how the heck is he talked into this kind of fatal stunts..?! Outrageously insane..!!

[@yatinexile7144]

I like these newspaper features; it's a shame they did only two of these with John Daly.

[@orzelgryf]

About this second guest - I didn't know, that Steve Jobs was in I've got a Secret :P

[@overthetarget9401]

+orzelgryf That's where Steve got the idea, 'imma gonna weasel my way back in' he said. ;-)

[@annegray650]

Loved the story of the second guest (Bob Armstrong)!

[@ChadQuick270W]

Did John Charles Daly ever appear on the syndicated WML? Either as a panelist or mystery guest? There's very little footage of him in color out there as CBS only made B&W kinescopes of the final season. I know he was on the premiere episode of Green Acres from the fall of 1965 as a news commentator. As always I'm enjoying these shows you've taken all the time to post here

[@baclamom]

+Chad Quick Yes, as the mystery guest on the final WML.

[@markschildberg1667]

That was in the network run. I don't recall him appearing in the syndicated run.

[@AllenMQuinn]

He never appeared in the syndicated run.

[@libertubey2199]

There is a 1975 special which features he, Arlene Francis and Mark Goodson commemorating the 25th Anniversary of "What's My Line?" That, as far as I know, is the only color videotaped footage of John Charles Daly and it's on YT. Maybe one day, they will uncover a color videotaped episode or two from WML's final season on CBS.

[@kristabrewer6736]

@@baclamom he appeared at the mystery guest on the final episode of HIS show! But I wonder why he DIDN'T appear on it!

[@WhatsMyLine]

This weekend I'm posting the last two "extras" videos I have, both episodes of I've Got a Secret with a WML connection. This one features John Charles Daly as guest in the third segment. --------------------------- Join our Facebook group for WML-- great discussions, photos, etc, and great people! facebook.com/groups/728471287199862/ To stay up to date with postings, please consider supporting the WML channel by subscribing.

[@zacharydunlap-tunnage2220]

At risk of sounding picky, didn't you just post this already? Just being curious...

[@dougwickstrom9870]

As a slight correction, a newspaper documenting the burning of Washington could not have appeared before August, 1814.

[@petemarshall8094]

Plus it wasn’t the English, it was the British.

[@darrelltiencken9421]

Looks older than 1967

[@debrareisdorf309]

The day before my 14th birthday!!!

[@keithnaylor1981]

Those newspapers were amazing! Surely prohibition was the craziest most unworkable legislation ever introduced by any country?

[@Deejaay83urj38]

Well, other drugs, less harmful also, are illegal. Why is it surprising booze was? Unworkable yes. That's the only reason it was legalised. They couldn't control that drug

[@petemarshall8094]

Imagine fighting for years in the rat-infested trenches of WWI, for “freedom”, with no pleasure except the odd drink, and returning in 1919 to find a bunch of sanctimonious pearl-clutching bible-thumpers were about to make your life a living hell.

[@joelfogelsanger5773]

Henry Morgan with that arrogant smirk.

[@lynettepalecek3141]

@Joel Fogelsanger. I disagree.

[@sophiemorrison9820]

I don't think he was very well liked among some in the business.

[@overthetarget9401]

A bit more than 10 years of additional television work since the mid-fifties episodes of WML and Steve and JCD look like they've aged about 25-30 years and have lost any and every will to live.

[@krystonjones]

Yes, JCD smoked his health away, and by the looks, Steve ate it, he was handsome when young & trim.

[@kelloggs5473]

Steve Allen revealed in one of his many books that he couldn’t drink alcohol because consuming only one beer put him to sleep. As far as I know, he never mentioned whether he smoked.
