    1 9 5 7 – 1 9 6 3 (UK)

    Produced and directed by Reg Watson, this live daily weekday lunchtime show with a pre-Crossroads Noele Gordon as the hostess was introduced in the Midlands at the end of 1956.

    Noele was joined each day at 12:45 by organist Jerry Allen and his TV Trio – Alan Grahame (vibes), Lionel Rubin (drums) and Ken Ingarfield (bass) – and young Canadian singer, David Galbraith (pictured at right).

    Each week featured a special singing guest who appeared on all five 45-minute shows that week.

    During the course of the series, Noele went down a mine, rode an elephant and entered a cage of lions.
