R.I.P. Mike Williamson. He was the best....

Rarely went out on Saturday nights and watched The Penthouse Club regularly. Great entertainment, I can't really explain why! It was a different era back then. Sad to hear of his passing.

Live sport was very rare at the time.

The Penthouse club with its cross to the live trotting was gamebreaking.

Most sports were super protective of their live viewing audiences.

The real game changer was the broadcasting of the VFA match of the day on Sunday.

That's right. I watched the trots but of course I didn't bet. I was just a horse crazy young girl.

And of course....Mary Hardy... a real professional

 


Another forgotten gem of commentary.

Mike and Mary Hardy on 'The Penthouse Club' tv show every Saturday were hilarious. RIP Mike.

Yes and they would cross to the trots during the show.

“Could it be a draw Butch” Lost count of the number of times I heard that. He was good but not the best. That accolade rests with one just retired for mine.
