….name the show?
Crackerjack and the quiz game was called Double or Drop
…spot on. Eamon Andrews in the pic, I remember another presenter called Peter Glaze (I think). Leslie Crowther, Michael Aspel also.
Yep Aspel took over as the MC.
I think Eamon fell out with the BBC and went to ITV
Crowther and Glaze were more or less like session musicians but Session Clown/Comedians...and of the pier style
But a jobs a job and it was on TV
Crackerjack (via the BBC??) got all the top groups on
I can still remember Andrews doing Sports report on the radio at 5.00 when we won the league in 63.
He seemed to be on everything at the time.
Seamus Android
….he was, I recall Andrews doing major boxing matches in 60s and later times with ‘This is Your Life’.
I can remember them on the Albion away coaches back in the 70's, the lads would have one each and empty them on the way down and fill them on the way back!!,
...and you couldn't tell the difference
Remember a bloke drinking one at Waterloo Station at an away game when a "slam door" hit him in the mush. Left him an moon shaped imprint on his face.

Eamonn was one of many real TV pros in those days, like Bruce Forsyth or David Jacobs. They could turn their hand to anything and they'd lived a bit too.
