In Melbourne the first episode aired on 24 May 1958, with guests including Beryl Meekin, Red Moore, vocalist Paul Miskell and Jancece,[2] with competition in the 9:30PM time-slot including a feature film on HSV-7 and the first half of The Astor Show on GTV-9. Later during the run of the series it aired at 9:00PM, competed against talent programme Stairway to the Stars on HSV-7, and American sitcom Susie on GTV-9.[3] At that point the programme was preceded on ABV-2's schedule by Faraway Look and followed by documentary series Panorama.
It is not known if any kinescope recordings exist of the series, given the erratic survival rate of ABC's 1950s-era programming.
