Wish You Were Here?

Wish You Were Here…? ran on ITV for almost thirty years. It was first broadcast on 7th January 1974, hosted by Judith Chalmers who was to become most closely associated with it. Each half-hour show would report on tourist destinations and Chalmers was joined over the years by various reporters and co-hosts including John Carter, Anneka Rice, Anna Walker, Martin Roberts and Mary Nightingale. The series was axed in 2003 although five years later, Chalmers' son Mark Durden Smith joined forces with Sarah Heaney for Wish You Were Here… Now and Then, in which they revisited resorts first seen in the 1970s to see how much they have changed.
