Strictly speaking, my first appearance on television was on December 5th 1959. I was twelve years old and a keen follower of Enfield Football Club at the time. It was the occasion of the 2nd Round of the FA Cup. Enfield opened the scoring with Tony Lione but eventually the Football League side won 5-1. When Match of the Day was shown later in the evening, I was clearly visible standing at the half way line as I was the only spectator in white trousers.
