Can ANYBODY read THIS ??

Cheers :)
 
Interesting to see Morecambe and Wise on there. I didn't realise they had a transatlantic audience.

Channel 25 has a show called 'Bullseye' at 1.30PM. Surely that wasn't the darts based game show we had in the UK around that time?

They did have very limited exposure in the U.S. A few stations (mostly PBS affiliates) aired their programs at this time, and the 1967 summer replacement "Picadilly Circus" was apparently a renamed British series. They certainly never got the exposure of Benny Hill or Monty Python.
