RADIO TIMES - 18 AUGUST 1966 #1

Somebody mentioned in yesterdays comments that they remember watching the Tay Bridge opening ceremony on tv. Well it was indeed televised and as you can see the event made the front cover of the Scottish edition of Radio Times.

  1. I was on my Uncles boat that day
    ( Johhny Gall Broughty Ferry )He had a 17 berth boat and we sailed up and down the tay. They wouldn't let us go under it until it had officially been opened. ( think the Queen rode over it that day, not sure!) but it was a great day, we fished for mackarel and my Mum cleaned it and fried it in oatmeal.
    Great memory of that day!
