Today’s TV: 19.1.1980, Melbourne

Last day for ATV0 before re-launching as Ten the next day. TV Week covered both bases by listing it as “ATV10/0” for the full week.

Have also just noticed that the documentary series Survival, introduced by Johnny Farnham, appears on both ABC (5.35pm) and Nine (7pm).

That was a surprisingly strong lineup for kids shows on ABC for a Sunday. The Sunday lineup was usually filled with the not so good shows.

Surprised ABC was still persisting with the dead “Summer National” branding into 1986

Blankety Blanks repeats on both Nine and Ten (a few hours apart though).

this would have pretty much been the last week for the National branding as (IIRC) ABC News was restored in each state from the following Monday (27th) and The 7.30 Report began on the 28th.
