- 6:55 Special was a program on BBC TV, and ran from 1982 to 1983. It was hosted by Sally James and David Soul, the latter took up residence in the UK to film the series and eventually became a British Citizen in 2004.
In this episode, Dave Swarbrick and Simon Nicol (playing as a duo in the brief hiatus when Fairport Convention wasn't a working unit) perform a couple of the regular instrumental medleys in their set.

This video was originally on another channel which has sadly been taken down altogether by RUclips. I'm only putting it up here now because of that very unfortunate event, as it definitely deserves to be seen, but I claim no credit for it.
Swarb with the damn cigarette. I never saw him without that cigarette.He smoked as he played and held it while he sang. God bless him.
Lovely footage of better times. Thanks for posting!😄😄
The mighty Swarb at the top of his game. Great post!
Dave Swarbrick is magnificent ❤
Nothing better!
Fantastic footage of the fabulous Dave Swarbrick, my favorite fiddle player. But, oh, why so much focus on the audience clapping, eating hotdogs and drinking beer, while the amazing Swarb was playing? What was the cameraman thinking?
Many thanks for posting this. Too bad about the hat.
Wish I'd been st this gig.I notice Alan Partridge in the audience chowing down on a burger
Hey! Do you by any chance have footage of Dexys Midnight Runners performing “Come On Eileen” on this show? I’ve been looking for it for about a month now, and I can’t seem to find it anywhere.
