Hi ... and hope everyone is well
I just wanted to say that I was disappointed to have missed the first part of this programme tonight (80 Years of Television) after looking forward to seeing it. I saw the last part from just before Adele Dixon sang the song 'Television' but saw or heard no mention of Helen McKay until right at the end when there was only a quick glimpse of her. Does anyone know if she was mentioned earlier in the programme, please?
I was looking forward to hearing something about her and seeing her singing 'Here's Looking At You'. I grew up with family knowledge that, actually, she was the first female singer to appear on television and singing that song. I can't find the video of her either, when she recorded an interview at the Bradford T.V. Museum. I'm quite puzzled that there was no mention of her
as far as I could tell and the video doesn't seem to be available now. It all seems very strange ..
