Babes In the Wood Christmas Pantomime episode written and produced by George Wallace Jnr with Howard Scrivener as director which was shown Christmas Day with George Wallace Jnr, Eddie Edwards, Jackie Ellison, Max Blake, Geraldine Fitzgerald, Brian Cahill, Dick McCann, Channel 7 Ballet, Alana Hancock and Christina Matheson.
I once had contact on a long forgotten site with someone who had George Wallace’s ‘Babes in the Woods’ pantomime from the sixties on VHS tape. I was hoping to obtain a copy and digitalise it as a significant event in Brisbane television history. Unfortunately I was never able to secure the tape. Is there anyone who can help? I have two very short grabs from the original with George Wallace and his brilliant straight man Eddie Edwards. Any one with George Wallace footage please contact and I will digitalise
