Yes, it was on Grampiam. He hosted Wednesday People and The George Kidd Show.He was voted Grampian TV Personality of the Year in 1965.
McManus and Pallo were so high profile outside of the wrestling circle in the 1960s I would go with them, though Haystacks and Crabtree were recognisable just because of their size. In Scotland George Kidd had hid own tv show so must have been recognisable north of the border.
Haystacks, Big D, McManus and Pallo (especially in the 60's and early 70's).
In a different generation and in the North Jack Pye.
Pat Roach and unfortunately Jimmy Saville
