Does anyone know when the Frank Bough sex scandal took place in 1992? if it was later 1992 that might explain why LWT Axed Six o'Clock live!


By this point I believe 6 O'Clock Live was being fronted by Nick Owen anyway, but it was axed apparently so they could start building up and getting ready for London News Network, the last 6 O'Clock Live was late August and LWT News was on at 5.10pm on Fridays for the rest of 1992 by the looks of it.


Apartly the first day of this new ident, was the same day as when lwt news started at 5.10. So when did Frank leave the show?

It didn't take place in 1992, he was all over the papers in 1988 and that's why he stopped doing the Holiday programme. It was long over by 1992, he was on Have I Got News For You by then.

No, your thinking of his Drug and cock scandal in 1988.

In 1992 he was caught again in a S&M prostitute's Welbeck Street flat scandal Laughing

AT LAST IN-conjunctive with this thread http://www.tvforum.co.uk/tvhome/went-wrong-night-time-29774/

One of the very last piece of the jigsaw the Meridian Night time service, which its believe was used from

* January - December 1995, Before changing to "The Edge" brand" for the Med/Ang from January 1996. Without more "proof" its going to be hard to explain the proper facts.

I cant be Mid July, we have always been under the impression that Thames night time started around 21 August 1987. That Come home to Thames promo is for the new season, I don't recall any company starting promos 6 weeks ahead..

it could be 17th august??
