I remember seeing ‘No Honestly’ which was a television sitcom starring John Alderton and Pauline Collins being advertised on the television and this song (being the theme song) was played in the background. I don’t ever recall watching the actual show but when it was on in 1974 we had just gotten a colour television (on account of Princess Anne’s Wedding) and so we were watching more tv than ever before.
Both my parents loved ‘Upstairs Downstairs’ which was on a Sunday Night and it seemed to me that John Alderton and Pauline Collins were in just about everything. They had been in ‘Upstairs Downstairs’, had their own spin off show and they were in this too, so there was no escaping the pair of them on tv!
I remember Lynsey De Paul appearing for Britain with Mike Moran in the Eurovision song contest in 1977 and will always remember that the conductor was wearing a bowler hat and conducted the orchestra with his umbrella which I thought was truly wonderful! I must admit that I am a big fan of Lynsey De Paul and when I discovered that she had her own website and you could download her music from there I downloaded a number of her songs including ‘Rock Bottom’ the 1977 Eurovision entry and this one! I often play it on the way home from work…
Now listen t the song…..
