TV Channell

TV Channell was an early Australian television series which aired live on Sydney station ABN-2 from 15 November 1956 to around 11 April 1957, airing on Thursdays, and starred Douglas Channell. It was replaced on ABN's schedule by a similar local production called The Johnny Gredula Show, who himself had appeared on an episode of TV Channell.[1] The series was a variety show. An episode broadcast on 7 February 1957 featured regulars pianist Reg Lewis and organist Wilbur Kentwell, along with singer Margaret Day, singer Ross Higgins, singer Brian Lawrence, fire-eater Ya Yahmen and organist Perc Roberts.[2]

1957-era TV listings suggest that some of the episodes were kinescoped for broadcast on Melbourne television station ABV-2,[3] but it is not known if any of these recordings still exist.
