Points of View - 30th Anniversary Special - Anne Robinson - Oct 1991

Here's The long running BBC Viewers Comments programme Points of View - 30th Anniversary Special presented by the brilliant and beautiful Anne Robinson circa October 1991.
Points of View is a long-running British television series broadcast on BBC One. It started in 1961 and features the letters of viewers offering praise, criticism and observations on the television programming of recent weeks.
Points of View began in 1961 with Robert Robinson presenting viewers' letters to the BBC. It was originally designed as an occasional five-minute "filler" to plug gaps between shows. A critic for the Daily Herald wrote "I believe this marks an important turning point in the BBC's attitude to its audience"[citation needed]. The series was regarded cynically by the public as some believed most of the letters were written by the BBC themselves[citation needed]. Kenneth Robinson (no relation to Robert) took over in 1965, though Robert Robinson returned in 1969 before the show was dropped in 1971. During the 1960s there was also a spin-off, Junior Points of View.
The show returned in 1979 after an hiatus of eight years, with the dry humour of Barry Took at the helm. Originally only being broadcast in the London area as a 5-minute filler part of the regional programming, by 1980 it was broadcast across the whole of the UK. Took left in 1986 and was replaced by guest presenters including Tony Robinson, Alan Titchmarsh and Chris Serle, until Anne Robinson (no relation to Tony, Robert or Kenneth) took over as presenter in 1987. For many years during this period, the programme held a slot of 20:50 on Wednesday evenings. In 1997 Anne Robinson left the series to concentrate on Watchdog.
In September 1999, Points of View was moved to a Sunday early evening slot presented by Terry Wogan[1] and now included emails in addition to letters and telephone calls. In the 2007 series, Points of View featured diverse films, such as students from Sussex University making a passionate plea for the BBC to keep the soap opera Neighbours, John Leivers interviewing Roly Keating (the controller of BBC Two) on the channel's direction, and Jill Parkinson asking why there aren't more people with disabilities featured in BBC programmes.
In 2008 Jeremy Vine became the regular presenter of the series.[2] From the episode aired on April 7, 2013, Points of View is now produced by BBC Northern Ireland.

Thanks. Anne looked so different in those 1988 clips. I never knew Clive Anderson did this show. I wonder exactly what Johnny Mathis said that upset people... Really enjoy seeing Points of View.
