Broaden Your Mind

1969-12-15 · 30m

Very little exists of the 1968/1969 pre-cursor to The Goodies. Presented here are the 35mm film inserts to one show that would have been seen at various points in the episode interspersed with other material recorded on videotape in the studio. This material is sourced directly from the original film and is presented without the audience reaction, which would have been part of the original broadcast.
