JIMMY GREAVES, HENRY BLOFELD & ITV’S PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING – PART 2 OF THE TV LIFE & TIMES OF TOP PA VICTORIA STURGESS.
Manage episode 433420703 series 3584757
In this edition of Behind the Scenes, Production Assistant (Script Supervisor) Victoria Sturgess shares more stories of her life and times at the sharp end of British television from the late 1960s through to the early ‘90s taking in her move from music and entertainment to LWT’s Sports Department; which led to her working alongside such production luminaries as John Bromley, Ted Ayling, Patricia Mordecai and John Scriminger. She recalls the glamour of travelling the globe covering football and boxing, those “tiresome” golf and pool tournaments, the joy of Tarby’s FA Cup Final Celebrity Bar, plus that staple of World of Sport’s Saturday afternoon line-up - Professional Wrestling!
Victoria also talks fondly of her friendships with Jimmy Greaves and Henry Blofeld, their shared love of reading books and why she relocated to Wimborne Minster to open one of Dorset’s most celebrated book shops - ‘Black Pug Books’.
