As one would imagine, providing radio coverage for a water event was massively complicated for 1927, with the relevant equipment and commentators placed on the umpire's launch boat. In the end, it worked amazingly well! As for the race, let's just say it was not a great time to be an Oxford fan...)

The latter was even pitched to the BBC in 1957. But interestingly, an even earlier script was written by Warren, which he never discussed in his lifetime. According to David Tucker, there's only a few connections between it and Coronation Street, but it still remains historic. Tucker saved it from destruction but will never fully release it as per his friend's request.)

Anyhow, been wanting to cover this for ages, finally came across the required sources on the Internet Archive. Took a surprising amount of effort to encourage Granada higher-ups of the show's potential, necessitating two pilots and some backing by Granada's personnel. Still, a cornerstone of British television was born... Florizel Street... or it would have been had anyone liked the original title! Could have been called Jubilee Street too.)

I understand why this storyline received backlash, seeing as Ronnie Branning's actions do not reflect the typical behaviour of a grieving mother. But when considering Ronnie's traumatic past and the tremendous work by the involved actors, I think EastEnders handled the subject matter well. It would be interesting to see the original plans for this narrative. I hope I have treated this topic respectfully.)

I grew up watching Robot Wars, finding it to be a grand show focused on destruction. That said, it's a shame FIRST never really landed a major television deal, as it certainly could have proved compelling for a young audience. Based on the other footage available of Double Trouble, I think I would have enjoyed this robotic sport, in the same fashion as Robotica.)

In a game that set up the 1990 Final clash quite nicely, Friends of Fulham outmatched Doncaster Belles on "home soil" of sorts thanks to acquiring Craven Cottage!)

The English and Scottish FAs damn near came close to killing the sport with their Football League ground bans, with the game marking an important step forward for women's football's recognition. Also, it's amazing how much nonsense the players had to overcome from the media back then.)

Aka the first true BBC Christmas show... humble beginnings, but paved the way for a more extravagant future.)

While England were not competitive enough for the 1991 FIFA Women's World Cup, the Lionesses were still miles ahead of Scotland. Speaking of Lionesses, Millwall stunned Doncaster Belles with a 1-0 win in the WFA Cup Final, in a match that took its physical toll on the players. British Film Institute sadly does not contain any recordings, unlike the 1990 edition.)

What sold the show for me and others was Noel Edmonds' presentation... he very nearly declined hosting it, though was later convinced of the show's potential. A few pilots are believed to have been filmed, including one featuring Family Fortunes' host Brian Conley.)

The later stages were televised, as was England's Euro 1991 qualifying match against Belgium. Interestingly, the BFI holds every tape within its archives. So why only partially found? Match highlights were cut to meet a 50-minute broadcast. Seeing how each game lasted 90 minutes, lots of footage was lost. it may explain why scorer and line-up information for the quarter-finals are lost.)

Most Russian sources state Vadim Sinyavsky is being forgotten nowadays, which is a sad state of affairs considering how remarkable this guy's life was. Heck, his Stalingrad broadcasts made him a personal enemy of Joseph Goebbels! Also the father of radio sports commentary in Russia and a pioneer figure in sports television, even if he disliked the medium. He's worthy of recognition... unless your name is Sergey Lapin...)

Six matches held as part of sporting events aimed to improve Turkish-Soviet relations, the available newspaper reports indicate some ended with tons of controversy.

Turns out Ukrainian SSR played Moscow instead of RSFSR... and that Vadim Sinyavsky was not even in the radio industry yet when this broadcast emerged! Conducted in front of the five-year plan delegates, poor documentation meant the match would certainly be forgotten to time were it not for its radio significance. Virtually nothing is known about the second match that aired!)

Thus, several Russian sources consider this game as the first "official" broadcast of a football match in Russia. The final score pretty much reflects a title-challenging team vs one near the bottom of the table.)

From what I gather, this was the first televised football match, albeit in pre-recorded form. Very little information is known about this broadcast and it has remained obscure outside Russia. Time for some more exposure, I think. The fact the match was filmed instead of merely televised live gives some hope that it may still exist, but somehow, I feel the lack of available information indicates it has long since disappeared.)

Finally, I've found the required sources, which sadly confirmed the tape was destroyed in an arson attack at Record's headquarters. The match itself was intriguing outside the famous goal, with Juventus putting up a decent fight before strong tackles and plays gave Santos glory.)
