The First Steps Sounds of the Sixties

This is BBC Television.

This programme consists chiefly of extracts from telerecordings

of some past transmissions.

The content is more limited than we would have liked,

but we hope it will be adequate enough to give you some idea

of our aims, our methods and the standards we've reached.

Hello, everybody. We'd just like to say

how happy we are to be with you on our own programme.

Our first song was a Zulu war tune

with Tom on the Bongo drum, Tim on guitar, and I'm Dusty.

Now, boys and girls, we come to our guest stars -

four young men who have been hitting the Hit Parade where it really counts.

They've been on our programme once before. It's great to welcome back The Shadows.

WILD CHEERING

Now we come to our guest stars.

They're very dear friends of ours on Crackerjack, and of yours,

because I know how much you enjoy meeting them. Here they are again - Pinky And Perky.

CHEERING

# Come on, let's twist again

# Like we did last summer

# Yeah, let's twist again

# Like we did last year

# Do you remember when

# Things were really hummin'?

# Yeah, let's twist again

# Like we did last year

# And round and round And up and down we go again

# Oh, baby, make me know you love me so and then

# Let's twist again

# Like we did last summer

# Come on, let's twist again

# Like we did last year... #

SAXOPHONE BREAK

# Who's up there? Is it a bird?

# No!

-# Is it a plane?

-No!

-# Is it the twister?

-Yeah!

# Come on, let's twist again

# Like we did last summer

# Come on, let's twist again

# Like we did last year

LYRICS INDISTINCT

# Pops and Lenny today! #

CHILDREN CHEER

Well, hi, kids! Now, to start the show today,

here's somebody that we thing is out of this world.

It's none other than Craig Douglas!

CHILDREN CHEER

# Everybody's going out and having fun

# I'm just a fool for staying home and having none

# I can't get over how she set me free

# Oh, lonesome me!

# A bad mistake I'm making Just by hanging round

# I know that I should have some fun and paint the town

# A lovesick fool is blind and just can't see

# Oh, lonesome me!

# Well, I bet she's not like me

# She's out and fancy free

# Flirtin' with the boys with all her charms

# But I still love her so

# And brother, don't you know

# I'd welcome her right back here in my arms

# Well, there must be some way I can lose these lonesome blues

# Forget about the past and find somebody new

# I've thought of everything from A to Z

# Oh, lonesome me!

# Well, I'll bet she's not like me

# She's out and fancy free

# Flirting with the boys with all her charms

# But I still love her so

# And brother, don't you know

# I'd welcome her right back here in my arms

# Well, there must be some way I can lose these lonesome blues

# Forget about the past and find somebody new

# I've thought of everything from A to Z

# Oh, lonesome me!

# Oh, lonesome me

# Oh, lonesome me! #

CHEERING

Oh, Craig, that was swinging!

-Oh, you like music that swings, do you, Lenny?

-I certainly do!

-So do I.

-Cue for song.

And here's another character you've all asked to see on the show again.

It's an old pal of mine - Joe Brown.

CHEERING

# It took a hundred years to make that oak tree grow

# And there beside that tree I learned to love you so

# Yes, I love you so

# It took a hundred years of sunshine

# Before that oak tree grew

# But it only took a minute, baby

# To fall in love with you

# It didn't take a lifetime

# To make my dreams come true

# No, it only took a minute, baby

# To fall in love with you

# Fall in love with you

# Fall in love with you Bop do-wop

# It took a million stars to make that starlight shine

# Shine, shine, shine

# And underneath those stars One night I made you mine

# Yes, I made you mine

# It took a million stars twinkling

# To light that sky of blue

# But it only took a minute, baby

# To fall in love with you

# It didn't take a lifetime

# To make my dreams come true

# But it only took a minute, baby

# To fall in love with you

# Yeah, it only took a minute, baby

# To fall in love with you. #

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Hello, mate.

-Joe, that was really swinging.

Listen, Joe, I've got a marvellous idea for the finale.

As you're a Londoner, why don't we do the Lambeth Walk?

Eh? It's a bit square, innit?

This is BBC Television.

# Little children Now why don't you go bye-bye?

# Go anywhere

# Go up the stairs

# Me and your sister We're goin' steady

# How can I kiss her When I'm ready to

# With little children like you around?

# I wonder what can I do around

# Little children like you? #

Well, there you are, that's one way not to spend your holiday.

Now we've got two very welcome stowaways on Crackerjack.

As I've told you before, you've asked for them many times

and inviting them to join us on this show

we've once again turned to the Hit Parade,

so it's a big welcome for Peter and Gordon.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

# Please lock me away

# And don't allow the day

# Here inside where I hide

# With my loneliness

# I don't care what they say

# I won't stay in a world without love

# Birds sing out of tune

# And rain clouds hide the moon

# I'm OK, here I'll stay with my loneliness

# I don't care what they say

# I won't stay in a world without love

# So I wait and in a while

# I will see my true love's smile

# She may come, I know not when

# When she does I'll know So baby, until then

# Lock me away And don't allow the day

# Here inside where I hide with my loneliness

# I don't care what they say

# I won't stay in a world without love

# So I wait and in a while

# I will see my true love's smile

# She may come, I know not when

# When she does I'll know So baby, until then

# Lock me away And don't allow the day

# Here inside where I hide with my loneliness

# I don't care what they say

# I won't stay in a world without love

# I don't care what they say

# I won't stay in a world without love. #

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Well, thank you, Peter and Gordon.

And now we come to a very important moment in the show

where we find our Champion of Champions

from those who've won Double Or Drop throughout the series.

# When I kissed you on your lips I knew that you were made for me

-# You were made for me

-You were made for me

They'll be singing again later.

# Hearts torn in every way

# So ferry 'cross the Mersey

# Cos this land's the place I love

# And here I'll stay

# People they rush everywhere

# Each with their own secret care

# So ferry 'cross the Mersey

# And always take me there

# The place I love

# People around every corner

# They seem to smile and say

# We don't care what your name is, boy

# We'll never turn you away

# So I'll continue to say

# Here I always will stay

# So ferry 'cross the Mersey

# Cos this land's the place I love

# And here I'll stay

# And here I'll stay

# Here I'll stay . #

-Can I talk to you about Brian Epstein?

-Certainly, yes.

-What's he mean to you...

-Brian?

-..as a manager?

Oh, money! THEY LAUGH

No, seriously, he's done a lot for us, you know,

tells us, all kinds, what to do.

He made us wear suits and everything, looked better and everything.

# Well, I told you once and I told you twice

# But you never listen to my advice

# You don't try very hard to please me

# With what you know it should be easy

# Well, this could be the last time This could be the last time

# Maybe the last time, I don't know

# Oh, no

# Oh, no

# Well, I'm sorry, girl but I can't stay

# Feelin' like I do today

# It's too much pain and too much sorrow

# Guess I'll feel the same tomorrow

# Well, this could be the last time This could be the last time

# Maybe the last time, I don't know

# Oh, no

# Oh, no

# Well, this could be the last time

# This could be the last time

# Maybe the last time, I don't know

# Oh, no

# Oh, no

# Well, I told you once and I told you twice

# That someone will have to pay the price

# But here's a chance to change your mind

# Cos I'll be gone a long, long time

# Well, this could be the last time

# This could be the last time

# Maybe the last time, I don't know

# Oh, no

# Oh, no

-# Last time, baby

-The last time

-# I'll see you no more

-Baby, the last time

-# Well no, no more

-Baby, the last time

Last Thursday evening we sat as a family

and we saw a programme that started at 6.35,

and it was the dirtiest programme

that I have seen for a very long time.

MUSIC: "Five Four Three Two One" by Manfred Mann
