1972 (This Is Your Life TV Show - 29 November 1972 (Season 4, Episode 3)
ABOUT This Is Your Life:
This Is Your Life is a British biographical television documentary, based on the 1952 American show of the same name. It was hosted by Eamonn Andrews from 1955 until 1964, and then from 1969 until his death in 1987 aged 64. Michael Aspel then took up the role of host until the show ended in 2003.
In the show the host surprises a special guest, before taking them through their life with the assistance of the 'big red book'. Both celebrities and non-celebrities have been 'victim' of the show. The show was originally broadcast live, and over its run it has alternated between being broadcast on the BBC and on ITV.
The British version of the show was launched in 1955 on the BBC and was first presented by Ralph Edwards to the first "victim", Eamonn Andrews, who was the presenter from the second show. It ended in 1964 when he moved to Associated British Corporation, but it was revived on ITV (produced by Thames Television) in 1969, and Michael Aspel (himself a "victim" in 1980) became presenter after Andrews died in 1987. The only other occasion on which Andrews was not the presenter was in 1974 when he was the subject a second time, and the show was presented by David Nixon. It returned to the BBC in 1994, though it was still produced independently by Thames Television, and was axed again in 2003.
Originally the show was always broadcast live but later programmes were sometimes pre-recorded, with the live broadcasts ending in 1983 when Alan Minter could not stop swearing during his appearance. As a result, newspapers were able to find out which star was to be featured and ratings dropped, as people no longer watched it just to see who it was about.
The show returned in June 2007 on ITV for a special programme hosted by Sir Trevor McDonald with guest Simon Cowell.
Some of the Celebrity guests included: Sir Tom Finney, Shirley Bassey, Muhammad Ali, Ken Dodd, David Nixon, Frankie Howerd, Lord Mountbatten of Burma, Harry Hill, Frank Skinner, Jim Davidson, Cairoli, Joan Collins, Bernard Manning, Stephen Behan father of Brendan Behan and Dominic Behan, Windsor Davies, Sydney MacEwan, Peter Davison, Alfred Marks, Brian Rix, Justin Hayward, Paul Young, Gary Glitter, Patrick Macnee, The Bee Gees, Bill Oddie, Tim Brooke-Taylor, producer Bill Kenwright, Kenny Dalglish, Barbara Windsor, and DJ John Peel.
