"YOU ARE THERE"
(Walter Cronkite/30 minutes/weekly)
"THE SINKING OF THE TITANIC (April 14-15, 1912)"
First telecast: Sunday, May 22, 1955.
Cast:
Noel Drayton as Captain Smith
Olive Blakeney as Mrs. Straus
Charles Meredith as Mr. Straus
Lowell Gilmore as J. Bruce Ismay
Gordon Mills as Colonel Astor
Mary Shipp as Mrs. Astor
Mike McHale as Mr. Murdoch
Does anyone remember this episode, or anything specific about it? I recall being glued to my television every Sunday throughout the 4 years or so "You Are There" was telecast. As I remember, their programs were presented to give the impression that participants in historic events were being asked on-the-spot questions for the TV audience. I know I watched this one, but now I'm drawing a blank. The shows were 30 minutes long.
