"Una Paloma Blanca"
One area where 70 FFFY is right is that Wikipedians have a lot time on their hands, as I have spent hours researching this. One notable thing is that King is lucky that this performance of "Una Paloma Blanca" still exists. It is from TOTP on 4 September 1975 and the archive from 1975 is incomplete as the BBC stupidly wiped many of the tapes from the 1960s and early 1970s to save money. The surviving episodes from this period are here and there are huge chunks of 1975 missing. April 1976 is the point at which a full TOTP archive exists. It's also helpful that someone has uploaded this performance to YouTube, because with both Savile and King in it, it is unlikely to get shown on BBC repeats.

There are numerous copies of "Una Paloma Blanca" on eBay, and a good photograph here.-- ♦Ian Ma c M♦  (talk to me) 21:15, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
 * The Radio Times for TOTP on 4 September 1975 is here. Only nine editions of TOTP from 1975 are still in the BBC archive, so "Una Paloma Blanca" has beaten considerable odds to survive, as all of the remaining editions up to the Christmas period are missing. The BBC must really have wanted to save money on the Quadruplex videotape used at the time.-- ♦Ian Ma c M♦  (talk to me) 18:54, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
