Just been posted a link to this clip on YouTube.  I think this is Yorkshire TV in October
1975.  There's only a minute of it, but wow all the same:-

Amazing find.
Being that sort of quality and wide screen in 1975, I would have thought it must be film, but it does seem to be on the monitor in the background.

A marvellous clip. Hopefully there is more somewhere....
And in that case a proper release.

I remember this being shown on Thames TV around this time. It was a half hour programme & broadcast, somewhat bizarrely, at lunchtime. For some years I had an audio copy recorded with a mike in front of the speaker, not great quality, but now irrelevant as it was lost, along with the JBL BBC doc soundtrack, in a house move many years ago. Hope the rest of this surfaces again.

Thanks for the thaks all, though it does appear that the link was already posted on the Fairport Related Youtube thread.  Apologies for not noticing that fstix had already posted it.

I would humbly submit that the "White Dress" is a clip from the previously mentioned Yorkshire TV show that was a full half hour & in London, broadcast one lunchtime, on ITV Thames.

Clinton Heylin's, excellent if not all together trustworthy, "Gypsy Love Songs & Sad Refrains" lists the programme as Yorkshire TV, 29th December 1975 (recording or transmission?) & containing only three tracks: "Rising for the Moon", "Stranger to Himself" & "White Dress". However, I'm convinced that "Brilliancy Medley / Cherokee Shuffle" & "Iron Lion" also appeared, but I cannot recall if there was anything else.

As I have posted in the Fairport YouTube section, I have a rather poor quality audio only recording of the programme which has the following track listing:

1. Iron Lion
2. Rising For The Moon
3. White Dress
4. Stranger To Himself
5. Brilliance Medley (nearly correct title)
6. Next Stop Girl (or rather Night Time Girl)
7. Mr. Lacey

so full marks to you sir!

Oops, keep up Ian, I missed that.  Thanks, Mike.
