The only real difference between then and now, it seems to me, is that whereas Philip II drowned heretics in dark cellars, Lew Grade tries to make us watch Sunday Night at the London Palladium] (ATV). This week Tom Jones was on. He can tie his eyebrows together by crinkling his forehead and make his adam's apple go up and down by waggling his bum. Fantastic.

Frankie Howerd topped the bill of last night's Palladium Show on ITV - and drew expectant giggles even before he opened his mouth. He is, in fact, the kind of comedian who can make the joke in a cracker seem amusing.

Last night's Sunday Night at the London Palladium on ITV was handed over to the Stars' Organisation for Spastics. We had a list of big names as long as Jack's beanstalk and an audience prepared to bruise its hands in generous enthusiasm. It did not matter that much of the material was stale, for the show was enjoyable.
