Television Personalities
MISC
There are a few pages on this site that are tucked away and easily missed. For this reason, I've created this new section on which to compile them. I will also add any curiosities here in the future that don't particularly fit in an existing section.
The Bill Grundy interview with the Sex Pistols
On the 1st of December 1976, the original line-up of the Sex Pistols (Rotten, Cook, Matlock, Jones) appeared on Thames Television's 'Today' programme. Hosted by Bill Grundy, this was a live news / current affairs show which was broadcast at teatime in the London area. The Pistols debut single 'Anarchy In The UK' had just been released when they went on the show.
