This fast-moving hour-long song and dance series was hosted by nimble-footed Lionel Blair in front of a live audience at the Theatre Royal in Nottingham.

Each week, Lionel introduced acts new to television and performed with the Alan Harding Dancers.

Amongst the acts made famous by the show was comedian Duncan (“Chase me!”) Norvelle.
