Shadnor SUBS 31st Aug 2024



Shadnor SUBS 23rd Mar 2024		This Rediffusion TV special was produced in celebration of Cliff and The Shadows' tenth anniversary in show business. The title is an acknowledgement of that in an indirect manner. It refers to a joke in a song's count-in, announcing that the song will start "after ten", then yelling "ten" to take the others by surprise. The use of "ten" is in reference to this anniversary. The special has no other guests and features Cliff and The Shadows only. Musical backing is by The Shadows and/or a Norrie Paramor orchestra for many songs, although some are mimed to the original studio recordings only. The program is a mixture of new performances, clips from previous shows, and abridged versions of various songs and performances. There are two parts to the program. The first is a take off on Cliff and The Shadows as old men, looking back on films of their career and talking about how they got started. It's all done tongue in cheek, and footage from several old shows is show, as well as several new skits. The second half is mostly staged song performances with a few comedy skits between. For the live performances heard in the program, the drums are by former Shadows drummer, Tony Meehan, rather than Brian Bennett as Brian was ill.
