Anne Marie Fabry edit

Who is Anne Marie Fabry and why is her name at the near top of the "other identities" list and the only such person to have a picture posted? I have never heard of this person on IMT.

Recommend that that name and picture is removed from the article unless it can be cited that the person was a significant person to the program. Andjb (talk) 12:29, 2 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Agreed - Anne-Marie Fabry was French, and billed as "Graham Kennedy's secretary". She made several IMT appearances in 1958-59 in which she assisted on live commercials and read viewer letters, but was never anything more than a novelty - she certainly played no significant part in the program at any point.

Image copyright problem with Image:G kennedy and b newton.jpg edit

The image Image:G kennedy and b newton.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
  • That this article is linked to from the image description page.

Mike Preston edit

User Studio9crew has twice added Mike Preston as one of the 1970 hosts of the program. In fact, Preston left GTV-9 acrimoniously at the end of 1969, and didn't compere IMT after that. The four 1970 hosts are already listed (and, nonsensically, Studio9crew adds Preston as a fifth host, while leaving the phrase "...continued with four hosts").

Naturally, he's not sourcing his addition. I've reverted the edit twice, but fear that the user in question will probably just keep adding it again each time... Chris Keating (talk) 05:13, 24 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Page has some issues… edit

Newton quote has a lacuna. Also, who is ‘Nicky’? And other issues. Article needs much work. This was a landmark program in the history of Australian TV.2001:8003:303D:BC00:3CC6:9703:344C:E914 (talk) 06:25, 19 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
