Broadcast in the 1950's and 60's on on the BBC Light Program, and always began:
'The time in Britain is twelve noon, in Germany it's one o'clock, but home and away its time for "Two-way Family Favourites", presented by Jean Metcalfe and Cliff Michelmore' It was an absolute must for Sunday lunchtime listening when Britain still had national servicemen serving both at home and abroad.
