TV 114: Whicker's World (The Trendsetters) - Laurie Johnson



















I've recently re-lived the glory of Alan Whicker's wonderful documentary series by watching the two Network DVD releases. For those who have yet to sample his amazing global social / human interest stories, then you're in for a treat.

The series ran for almost 30 years - starting on BBC in 1959, moving to ITV in the late 1960s and then jettisoning back to the BBC for the last few series, finishing up in 1988.

The theme you will hear is by Laurie Johnson and was used for many of the 1960s episodes.

Comments and feedback are welcome.
