Midlands Robin Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 The Gilette Cup Final shown on the top right of the cover took place on the 5th of Sept 1970 if that's any help to anyone.

Olé Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 As an avid follower of the way NTTDS thinks, I am willing to bet it was the first HTV West Soccer Special that week, or something exciting like that. Clues: Apart from round trip flights to Newcastle, John's other claim to fame is his incredible record-keeping and reporting of TV coverage of Bristol football He has given us the front cover of an issue of the Radio Times but hidden the date, which @Midlands Robin has traced to August/September 1970 HTV West started in 1970 On the odd week then HTV West started to show its own "Soccer Special" highlights rather than LWT's "The Big Match" (I got this off Google, obvs) This is exactly the sort of thing NTTDS would like to know about and would probably want a copy of the exact Radio Times listing, for his collection Case closed. Or if I'm wrong, the answer is Dame Margaret Rutherford looks like a half inflated Benny Lennartsson in a silly hat. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

handsofclay Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 (edited) Didn't Radio Bristol start in 1970? Seeing as it's the Radio Times and the North East Edition is publicizing BBC Radio Durham, maybe the local copy NTTDS has is advertising the first Radio Bristol local sports coverage on a Saturday afternoon as it's near the start of the football season date wise for 1970 Edited December 27, 2023 by handsofclay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Malago, it was Ole who put me onto it thinking about the HTV coverage but as was pointed out Radio Times is a BBC publication so they wouldn't have been doing that which then made me think of Radio Bristol.
