I think the woman on the Dave Clark record was Madeline Bell of Blue Mink.


One of the controversial bits of legislation passed in 1967 was David Steel's Private Member's Bill which greatly liberalised the abortion law.

Think No1 is Marilyn Monroe!
Wild guess for No 7 ~ Guess Who's Coming To Dinner!
I think you will find no1 is Diana Dors.
3) Decriminalisation of homosexuality (England & Wales).

The `Observer` newpaper gave it as Steptoe and Son.


The `Melody Maker` gave it as Ready, Steady Go.


40 Years of British Television also gives Steptoe and Son as having the biggest audience 9.71 million, just ahead of Sunday Palladium 9.69 million.
