• Talk & Interview

Emmy nominated discussion series which presented a filmed, intercontinental conversation that linked moderator Edward R. Murrow in New York with three internationally known figures located in different parts of the world. What set this series apart from other televised interview/discussion programs was the fact that its participants could not see each other but could hear one another via telephone lines and radio. Film cameras recorded the visuals, and the final product was aired after picture and sound were combined and edited. The conversations were random in nature, covering matters both large and small, as the guests developed the discussions on their own with occasional assistance from Murrow.
