Just listened to Kathy Kirby singing You're The One and the backing sound's a bit like the backing on Scott Walker's Jackie :wink:

You are correct Marian.............after the terrorist attacks on Israeli athletes during the 72 Munich Olympic's many of the Olympic TV programmes were cancelled, so the BBC aired the pilot episode of Are You Being Served at that time without any pre publicty whatsoever before showing it, and as they say, the rest is history.................your turn now Marian :)

We've managed to miss most of the 'singing' and just watched the end of the result programmes so far.
