ITV SCHOOLS JUNCTION - TUESDAY 13 MARCH 1979

ITV Schools junction from the Spring Term 1979.

This slide was used week commencing Monday 12th March 1979. Looking at the listings in that year's Annual Programme Booklet, Looking at Television was shown Tuesdays and Fridays, and preceded on Tuesdays by Watch Your Language, and on Fridays by Experiment. This certainly isn't Experiment (wrong production company for starters), so - despite the fact I'm struggling to find a link between the footage and the nature of Watch Your Language - this must be Tuesday 13th March, from approx 10.14am to 10.19am.

I have also checked the TV Times listings for the week prior to this (I do not have access to the listings for the week in question) and this reflects the Annual Programme Booklet. Neither programme here appears to be a regional variation, and I'm certain of the term and in fact the week (unless this slide happened to be used more than once), but I'm somehow far from comfortable with the first programme being Watch Your Language. It's possible there was a schedule change that Tuesday or Friday - perhaps someone would check newspaper listings to confirm?

The music used here is Frovolity by Andrew Jackman, and Chateaux by Francis Fumiere.

This footage was kindly supplied to me by Simon Luxton, and as far as I know it is not already on YouTube.
