#FridayFun Someone reminded me of this brilliant clip, recorded from within a live tv gallery, during Eurovision in 1977 (i think that date is correct forgive me if not.) and demonstrates the stress and skill sometimes required to direct a live TV show.

Please note that not all TV galleries are quite this ummm... shouty.

Listening to it brings up my adrenaline!
