Thanks to Jane Mclean for sharing the photos.
The following comments were left on the Pebble Mill Facebook Page:
Keith Brook (aka Scouse): ‘I wasn’t on this because I’d left by then, but I’ve done several programmes with Tom O’Connor since then.
He always made a point of thanking the crew individually. Maybe a handshake, maybe a wave, but always a thank you. That’s a real celebrity.’
Stuart Gandy: ‘Keith Harris and Orville was the first ‘celebrity(s) that I saw when I first visited Pebble Mill for my first interview back in 1979. He was on Pebble Mill @ One that day, and I got a sneak look into the foyer on my way to the interview.’
Gary Jordan: ‘Had some great musical guests on including the mighty Slade who performed, Still The Same.’
