A Whole Scene Going On

1 9 6 6 (UK)

A Whole Scene Going On was the first real teenage lifestyle program with features on Carnaby Street fashions, the London club scene and package holidays in Italy. Twiggy made her first TV appearance on this show and presenter Barry Fantoni's "hot seat" interview was the first time TV took rock ideas seriously.

Pete Townshend famously discussed drugs, and tempers flared when producer Mickie Most refused to answer Fantoni's questions.

The show was axed after just one series - in mysterious circumstances that still attract libel writs - and replaced shortly afterwards with Simon Dee's chat show, Dee Time, which quickly became a must-do gig for pop groups with records to sell.
