Despite passing several auditions for the television talent show "Opportunity Knocks" it was'nt until 6th March 1978 that we were asked to appear. It was the very last voting show. Hughie Green had decided to call it a day. At the time we had just released an EP of four songs which were written by Arthur. Peter Dulay who was the producer at the time, liked our performance of one of the tracks, "Mississippi Candlelight". We had to dress appropriately for the song so Country & Western outfits were the order of the day. The filming was at Thames Television Studios, London. Janice Nicholls of "Thank your Lucky Stars" fame was our sponsor.
