Aquarius (1)

Two other title sequences from a series that ran for seven years in all, largely in a magazine format but with occasional full-length single films. The second clip is introduced by Peter Hall, then and now recognised as a leading theatre director, who took over presenting duties when Burton returned to the BBC. Over the years, the series covered subjects as diverse as the musical Hair, pop star Elton John, documentary maker Denis Mitchell, composer Erik Satie and aviator Amy Johnson. Other than "Hello Dali" above, another memorable single film followed Alfred Hitchcock while he was in London to shoot "Frenzy."
