As You Like It
Pop stars will be sent out to interview viewers in Southern's new pop music request series As You Like It, to be networked from Tuesday, May 9, at 7p.m. It replaces Double Your Money which ends on May 2. Don Moss is resident host, and each week a pop star will interview viewers who wish to make requests. Adam Faith is the interviewer in the first programme. Producer Mike Mansfield says that each programme will have its own basic theme. In the first one, for instance, Adam Faith will fly to Amsterdam gathering requests from people connected with his journey. The cab-driver who takes him to the airport may wish to make a request or the pilot or maybe the hostess. Other requests may well come from people like customs officers and possibly even the man who lives near the airport and resents the noise of aeroplanes. The film we shoot will then be married to studio sequences in which top stars and groups will perform songs. Appearing in the first programme will be Sandie Shaw, Manfred Mann, Dave Clark and Alan Smethurst, The Singing Postman. Pop star interviewers in later editions will include Lulu, Paul Jones and Julie Felix. Their visits will be to Petticoat Lane, Wimbledon, hospitals and forces bases overseas.

The Lawrence Welk Show
Renowned bandleader Lawrence Welk began his own variety series in 1955... and it has never stopped running. Each program was straightforward musical numbers from Welk's band (many of which had featured solos at one point or another), as well as vocal selections and dance numbers from the show's cast. Most of the introductions to the performances, read stiffy by Welk, were kept short. Many of the shows revolved around a certain theme (e.g., "The Music Man" or the Fourth of July), with appropriate songs and dance numbers. The most famous of the featured singers were the Lennon Sisters (Dianne, Janet, Kathy and Peggy), who were featured most every week for 13 years. At the end of each show, Welk would invite women from the audience on stage to dance with him as the theme, "Bubbles in the Wine" (and later, "Champagne Fanfare") played. The show enjoyed a 16-year network run on ABC, and later a successful 11-year syndicated run. Just months after the original series ended, older shows (from c. 1965-1982) were repackaged with new footage and entered a long run in both syndication and on PBS.
