Here are a couple of performer biographies as read during a showing of the 1975 film "Royal Flash" on the WABC Saturday Night Movie in December 1985. WABC is channel 7 in New York City, ABC's flagship station.
After Alan Bates' resume, there's the old-school bump, a tease for the late second feature, then Britt Ekland's career is recounted. A station ID slide with "next" voiceover closes the video.
Thanks to longtime subscriber DanZero77 for reminding me of this announcer’s name: Barbara Korsen (currently working as Barbara Daniels Korsen), who was the only female voice on WABC during this era.
And NO, other YouTubers, you may NOT hijack this video for your own channels--I'd prefer the views stay right here, thanks!
