Being from the the USA, it’s cool seeing televised history from different countries. Taking away the US programs, Virtually everything from this program was all new to me.
43:58 "Sale Of The Century" (originating out of Station GTV-Melbourne) is a direct descendant of "Temptation" and "Great Temptation"(originating out of Station ATN-Sydney) which ran from 1970 to 1973 all up.
@@Mediawatcher2023 No, Regular "Temptation" was nominally 1 hour long and shown in the afternoon, weekdays while "Great Temptation was a half-hour programme shown after the News in the evening one night a week(probably Mondays).
14:21 The Mike Walsh Show started in 1972, not 1973 and originated from Station TEN-Sydney(should've been Station UTN for United Telecasters) then switched to Station TCN-Sydney in 1976.
@@Mediawatcher2023 I remember seeing Mike Walsh Show in 1972 at about 1.30pm weekdays. Mike was always ribbing anyone who was watching "Days Of Our Drearies" instead(he was aware of regional stations showing his show later than its Sydney timeslot).
@@neilforbes416 going by the program guide i have here it made its debut on 5th February 1973 and finished on 9th November 1984 the show was taken over by Ray Martin.That would be a bad choice for him hosting a show.
Homicide, Division 4, Et al were the best shows made thanks to Crawford Productions......so much better than all these unrealistic reality shows we get lumped with today designed for total airheads
Australia's first station was *STATION TCN-SYDNEY* which could've been allocated *ANY ONE* of the then-10 VHF channels available before VHF Ch,0,5a and 11 were created to handle the overflow of licence applications in successive years. Station TCN could've just as easily been given Ch.1, 2, 3 or even Ch.4 to transmit on. This shows that the channel number is of *ZERO* importance as it is nothing more than an ethereal 7-megahertz wide chunk of the VHF band with *no physical presence* beyond the electronics in the TV set's own tuner circuitry.
@neilforbes416 Individual television stations are usually granted licenses by a government agency to use a particular section of the radio spectrum (a channel) through which they send their signals.
@neilforbes416 The Australian Government restricted regional television broadcasting to one commercial service and a repeater station of the national broadcaster from the capital city ABC station. Regional television stations tended to be allocated to VHF 6, 8 or in some cases 10.
The punch up on The Midday Show will always go down in history. And Graham Kennedy with that naughty crow call, oh the memories 😅

They said Aussie Tv was 40yrs old then, so did it start in 1956? That's I think 7yrs after the USA.
Yes we didn't have TV till 1956 well after the U.S.@@MsLizziebeth1

It was on vhs with some shows in 1997 as the did celebrate the year from Sept 96 to Sept 97. I didn't check the date at the end and it is 1996. :)
Enjoyed watching this.
