Saturday 22 July 1961 television schedule for Adelaide, Australia.
As I mention above, I have an old "TV Week" magazine with a week of schedules for Adelaide, Australia. I'm tempted, if I can be bothered, to post the full week of schedules.
On the schedule are two pop music shows from Sydney ("Brian Henderson's Bandstand" and "Six O'Clock Rock"), some Melbourne produced variety shows, a UK-Australia co-production ("Whiplash"), and the always to be expected American imports.
I noticed while doing this thread that a lot of American series were re-titled when shown on Australian TV.
Also on the schedule are some films, including a Laurel and Hardy short.
The schedule has "Peter Gunn", therefore it is an awesome schedule.
