I like Tommy Steel use to listen to him all the time singing Little White Bull, and Singing the blues,my brother liked LittleRichard,Micheal Holliday, Our first tele in 1955 was a 12inch screen and the first show we watched was Arthur Askey Show. We also watched the Queens coronation on a nine inch screen with a magnifying screen over that. O dear I do feel Old, Fun days though. Sheila
