Ann-marie, I can remember the actual show, Sunday Night at the London Palladium was the highlight of Sunday evening's viewing. That particular show was very unusual: normally there would be three or four guests during each show, but such was Norman's popularity, he and Bruce did the entire show by themselves. At the end of the show it was customary for all the cast (including the dance troop (The Television Toppers) to mount a giant revolving podium,  and wave goodbye to the audience and viewers. At the end of that show there was only Bruce and Norman, and they were lying on the podium absolutely worn out after giving a solid hour of the best British television had to offer. Needless to say they received a standing ovation and the write ups in the following day's papers lauded the show.

Happy memories … that is until I remember how many years ago it actually took place.

Thank you Ann-marie, I have just worked out from your calculations I was eighteen years old at the time. And to think you hadn't even been born then … Hey, what are you doing on a site for senior citizens?

I believe the less said about that statement the better.  I was blushing whilst eating my morning cornflakes.
