At the time of his death, Richard Whiteley was believed to have clocked more hours on British television screens - over 10,000 appearances - than anyone else alive, apart from Carole Hersee, the young girl who appeared on the BBC's Test Card F. But before 'Twice Nightly Whitely' became famous for hosting the gameshow Countdown, he was part of Yorkshire TV's early days, presenting Calendar News and regional chat and magazine shows. One such show is Calendar People, which ran for four series from 1975 to 1981. The programme featured a series of interviews with prominent figures from the Yorkshire region. The subjects come from all walks of life and include cricket great Sir Len Hutton, All Creatures Great and Small author James Herriot, Lord and Lady Harewood, novelist Jilly Cooper and the Archbishop of York.
