Goodsports was always produced by TasTV / WIN Hobart. The occasional segment was produced outside of Tasmania but was still fully produced at TVT6.
That was the logo from 1969 to 1975.
Posted this on my non-footy YT channel.
Found extract from Coast-To-Coast of Graham Kennedy with his own ‘media watch’ type segment on the Murdoch media
I only learned a few years ago that the Bicentennial Minutes was, of course, similar to an American series Bicentennial Minute (not plural) that ran in 1976 for that country’s bicentennial. The American version, which aired on CBS, took more the form of an “on this day” format.

Have found an August 1977 doco “Big Bad Mal” about football Mal Brown. His son gave me the tape
Narrated by Peter Waltham, the end credit is “a TVW7 Presentation”
Can I just ask Rhett, do you just record all TV? How do you come across so much good stuff?
Always been a news buff, and we always seemed to be early adopters of beta / vhs machine / etc etc.
And have been lucky to have some good contacts
A promo for Don Lane Show August 1983.
(my father was guest).
I haven’t seen any of this episode unfortunately - rumour is that Patti Newton has every episode on tape/film
Did he ever take you to the studios when he was appearing on shows? Would have been very exciting for a kid, or was it just seen as boring dad work and you didn’t want to go? ![]()
Oh no I went - cause I was always fascinated with the media.
I went to every episode of the reboot of League Teams he co-hosted with Sandy Roberts and Bob Davis.
And I’d turn up to episodes of SportsWorld Footy Panel, and most of the Ch7 and Fox Footy games he called on television.
Very lucky my friend, very lucky!
My head just exploded! Wow.
I think you are doing great work in digitising like Zampakid and several others. I was just thinking the other day the one good thing these days is the access to older content to rewatch on YouTube unlike say 20+ years ago where you didn’t have that unless you recorded it yourself.
Thanks for the kind words. Just trying to make all the stuff that hasn’t been accessible, as accessible as possible
