I still have the programme from Cliff’s Holiday Carnival show at the ABC. I attended with my parents and brother. The show was superb. We later took my Grandma so I got to see it a second time.
Mr £1 Burger, in addition to previous answer, the theatre was originally The Borough Theatre, but didn't last long, and had various names before becoming The Queens in 1952 to honour Queen Elizabeth.
Great video Stephen and Chris. I am a big fan of Elvis and Cliff. I’ve seen Cliff in Blackpool. Manchester. London and in Berlin. 6 c 7 s . Love watching you opening your gifts it’s always interesting. Wish you both all the best. Greetings from Berlin 👍🥰❤️
Great bit of history . I think you should spilt the old time gear between you both and yes he deserves the medal to do a video on it nice gifts 2 Stephen
Nice memorabilia, Lonnie Donegan was a British Skiffle singer who done songs like "Rock Island Line", "Cumberland Gap", "Gamblin Man", "Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavour (On The Bed Post Overnight)", "My Old Man's a Dustman", "Michael Row The Boat", etc, etc. Lots of history in those booklets, lots of interesting adds as well. Here's my votes 1C, 2S, 3C, 4S, 5S, 6S, 7S.
Great video Stephen, bet that new entertainment museum would love them programs. Yep, every home had a pub ashtray and a few glasses as well, ha ha. Cheers mate.
Johnny hart was a conjurer/ magician who specialised in producing Budgies with sleight of hand from his attire, also on one of the shows I noticed was Peter Goodright who was a popular impressionist of the time, and the Kaye sisters three girls who used to sing in harmony.
Decimalisation in the UK was 15.2.1971. I remember it well as I was an National Insurance inspector at that time and had to work out the NI stamp arrears pre that date and convert to decimal to add to arrears due after that date, and there were no calculators then! How would they manage nowadays?! Oh, and Steven, how could you not know Freddie (Parrot Face) Davies- you’re not that young and he is still around?!
"Holiday Carnival" was the first show that opened the ABC back in 1963. It was opened by the then brand new Western Train, this being the last tram to use the by then closed Marton tram route.
I was on holiday in Blackpool in 1975 with family, and it's jogged my memory seeing that advert in the magazine for Mr and Mrs on the pier with Derek Batey. I remember it!
Hi Stephen alot of interesting stuff from the 60s and 70s... You know so much about Blackpool it's frightening! Enjoy your gifts, until the next one...
Hi Stephen thank you for another great video as always wow all of that history I liked Mr and Mrs show all the old classics it's not as good these days lovely presents very well deserved have a great day xx
Hiya Stephen,loved your video,and the T.Shirts are fab ,yes to previous comment we went decimal in 1971,anyone remember doing decimal bingo at school? Let Chris keep the programme and you have the others. Would make an interesting video of visiting the streets where some of the venues were. Freddie Parrot face,used to make funny faces and pull his bowler hat over his face i think
Great video as always Stephen, What a lucky guy you are. With all your gifts. Mr. Blackpool. Looking forwards to many more. Here’s my votes :- 1C. 2C. 3S. 4S. 5S. 6C. Takecare. Di. Xxx
Sorry Steve, I was on your patch filming last month, Don't worry I'm not very good 😅, please don't send the lads around. You 2 are almost a double act. Great work again Stephen 👏
I had that program as i went to see the show on the Central Pier, i also bought a copy of the theme music by Jackie Trent and Tony Hatch who were husband and wife, i still have the single its on the Pye Label
You defo need to go to corby to see the changes would make a great video. I lived in kettering for 52 years now live straight across the Irish sea from you in Blackpool right near the beach. Lots of good changes in Corb, sadly lots of Downward changes in kettering so glad to have got out, Corby has had a lot of investment and much better town shopping now
King Charles notes now in circulation 👑 You guys could get together and make a time capsule to bury under the foundation of some new Blackpool development.
Lots of US $ outside of the USA as Panama and Ecuador use it.Bermuda uses it although they have their own dollar too pegged to the US one.Zimbabwe was using the USD too but I think that they have reestablished the Zimbabwe Dollar.Then there's the village of Dollar in Scotland!
Freddie "Parrot Face" Davies was a massive star of TV and theatre in the 60s and 70s...I know you're far too young to remember him! The remarkable thing is he is still performing. He appeared on the same bill as Blackpool panto star Steve Royal at a theatre down south, at the weekend.
This is what my Auntie Susan said about The Queens Theatre........If you google it, it was Queen’s then Feldman’s then renamed Queen’s again; it was somewhere in the area where the Houndshill Shopping Centre is now. I thought it was on Coronation St, Uncle David thinks it was nearer to Central Drive at the back of the old central station. Online it puts it as being on Bank Hey St which is at the back of the Tower, but lots of roads were altered when the station was demolished and also when the shopping centre was built such as Adelaide St, which still goes down to the prom but now seems to have a chunk missing out of it where the one way system goes through!
1S, 2S, 3S, 4S, 5S, 6S, 7S. I think you should be given all of the items Stephen. Firstly because you are Blackpool born and bred, and you know an awful lot more about the town than Chris. Secondly, undoubtedly you will make highly entertaining, and informative videos about all of these items. I can't see any benefit in Chris having them at all. By the way Chris still has your cap that Jay very kindly bought for you Stephen. Does Chris get pleasure from taking things that have been sent for you? xx
Hi Stephen I can't believe you and Chris don't know who Freddie Parrot Face Davis is , he was always on TV in the 70s and early ,80s , he actually sounds like Chris Higgitt 😂 Google him singing Sentimental Songs 😂
@@juanbbien Yes he did , but he was on British TV during the 70s and early 80s and I remember seeing him and I'm the same age as Stephen and Chris Higgitt if I know him then Stephen and Chris must know him..
@@rogerpicklesworth1402 sadly I have seen Chris do this a few times now, and I think he is being disrespectful to both Stephen and the people whom are sending Stephen stuff.
@@TinWhistleTV I completely agree Tin, he took a cap that was sent for Stephen from Jay in USA, he was made aware that it was for Stephen but he still has it. I don't know why he has to involve himself anyway, he chose for the RUclipsrs to have their post sent to his arcade, he gets a load of free publicity, surely that should be enough.
@@moonagedaydream4489 I agree he gets a lot of free publicity, he should be happy with that as he profits from the sales of the free publicity. I am aware their are other youtubers whom are choosing not to have their stuff sent to his premises, and I wouldnt be surprised it is as a result of him taking this liberty and exposing himself when he lifts his top claiming his god's gift crap.
As Stephen is historical and always shows interest he should have all memorabilia as it will mean so much to him :) sorry Chris just feel he would benefit more huggles xxx
Everyone of those items should go to Stephen. It's his channel, I very much doubt Chris will make any interesting videos using them. I can't see why he feels he is entitled to any of them. Let Stephen do what he does better than any other RUclipsr, and Chris, you stick to cooking burgers!!
@12.48 WHAT! Neither of you have heard of Freddie 'Parrot Face' Davies.... Well I'm sick, sick sick up to here!
I still have the programme from Cliff’s Holiday Carnival show at the ABC. I attended with my parents and brother. The show was superb. We later took my Grandma so I got to see it a second time.
That dollar has been hanging off the edge of that shelf for 14 years. I swear it's glued on.
Freddie Davis is still around and lives in Blackpool!
He used to be known as Parrott Face, and spoke with a lisp!

6:07 Darbyshire advert, TV electricals still in business in Blackpool, shop used to go through from Talbot Road to Deansgate.
Yup, been past in my videos a few times.
Joseph Locke was an Irish singer well known in Blackpool in the 60s.
He sold his house in St Anne’s to George Formby.
His house is located in Fairhaven between Lytham and St Anne’s.
I showed George Formby’s house in a video early last year.

You've never heard of Freddie Parrot - Faced Davies????😮Appeared on opportunity Knocks in the early 1960s.
QUEEN'S Theatre was on Bank Hey Street, where TK MAXX is today, according to Google.
I was correct in thinking it was also named Feldman's, but Well before my time.
Hi Stephen thank you for another great video as always wow all of that history I liked Mr and Mrs show all the old classics it's not as good these days lovely presents very well deserved have a great day xx
Stephen you've got your own horror movie T-shirt ... 😂 "Return of the Blackpool Stalker (He's around every corner)".

Queens theatre was where Tk max was wasn't it, im sure, behind the Palace/sands venue
Wow memories I was at the Cliff and Shadows gig with my parents in 1963, shadows guitarist Bruce Welch performed with a broken arm
As he only strummed it wouldn't have made any difference.
Hi stephen good to see you with chris the blackpool daddy some interesting stuff nice one

From memory, I think that the Queens Theatre was on Coronation Street
The Queens theatre was where T K Max is now. Also the 007 club was on Victoria Street, it was the 008 club on Topping Street

Fantastic video by the way.. as usual
Love that walk on the wild side t-shirt. Working movie title to go with it. Mr wildside episode two return of the beer monsters 😂
$1 bills are fine. Bung in a few Scottish £100 notes and I might be tempted! lol
15 February 1971 we went decimalised. I think the coins 10p (2/-) & 5p (1/-) were introduced in 1968.
Indeed, and the 50p coin was also introduced in 1968.
Reduced the value of our money by 50%
I was only 2 then 👶
Awe bless I was 10 years old.
All of them should go to Stephen 👍👍👍
Thanks Duncan 🙏🙏🙏

He also did a bit of TV acting, was in a series set in Dorset with Nick Berry.

Definitely Ann!
Freddie Davies Steve was a comedian, if I remember I am sure he was on the Wheel tappers and shunters club which was on in the 70s .
A Dollar bill is cooler than our money ? I don't think so ! I'll take a Million pounds over a Million dollars anyday .
Defo worth more.
Queens Theatre was opposite the old Central Station
I was right when I said it was previously Feldman’s
Happy days ❤
I remember mike Newman.i think he is that Irish comedian.
See The Black Abbott's on Blackpool Pier 1964
