Found this while searching for 'Camminando sotto la pioggia'!
A nice period variety show number from 1974, surely we had colour tv by then?

we must have had colour tv by 1974 but I beleive not all programmes were broadcast in colour, not 100% on that though

Another nice find Phil (oops I hope that doesnt make me sound either a desperate desperado or part of the MAS)

I think colour TV broadcasts started around 1968 but you have to remember it was quite expensive and you needed a Colour License

And while some people are, quite rightly, cost conscious others think that everything should be free

This clip is from Italian Television. Italy did not start full colour broadcasting until 1977, one of the last European countries to do so.
Unless my ears deceive me, the tune for this song sounds suspiciously like that of an old Flanagan and Allen hit from the 1930's - "The Down and Out Blues".

Talking of "La Pioggia", this clip of the still magnificent Gigliola Cinquetti singing one of her hits of long ago has a little white PVC action in the background.
