THE STAGE, NOVEMBER 26, 1959

MIDLAND ATV’s popular mid-day show Lunch-Box, will again be seen on the whole ITV network on Christmas Day.

Its title will be changed to Christmas Box for the day.

One of the first changes introduced by new producer Jack Barton is to give the programme a theme each week. This week’s setting for instance is Fleet Street.

More personalities are also being featured in the show. Stars secured for a spot in future Lunch-Box seeings include Kenneth More (Dec 10), Terry Hall and Lenny the Lion (Dec 16) and Lester Ferguson (Dec 17).
