Just A Minute

I've been wondering about that myself, although I doubt the rest of the episode is of any significance, probably the usual pointless nonsense with Nicholas failing to live up to his duties as an impartial chairman and once more allowing Kenneth Williams to ride roughshot over poor Peter Jones and poor Andree Melly.  ;(  it breaks my heart you know. 

 

j/k, seriously, I was always curious why the episode stopped after 19 minutes.  I'm guessing whoever recorded the episode,must've recorded it from the radio, and the tape must've run out before the episode was over.  I'm thinking that's probably the reason for many of the incomplete episodes, some of them must've started recording an episode as the program was already in progress, like they forget to turn the thing on when the show actually started.  its one explanation, whether its accurate or not I'm not really sure. 

 

for my recording, I did some tinkering and at one particular point, I think just after Nicholas announces who is in first place, second place, third and fourth place, I spliced in a recording from another episode of the audience applauding just as the Minute Waltz plays and the announcer announces the end of the program.  it works pretty well cuz it was of the same audio quality as the rest of the episode.
