"TV Spells Magic" was a seventy minute spectacular aired on 5 April 1965 to celebrate the opening of the new television station 0-Ten Network. The £25,000 (about $51,000 Australian dollars) production, billed as the most expensive ever in Australia at the time, featured 260 cast and extras and very few spoken words - the program was made up almost entirely of music, song and dance pieces to tell the story of the construction of a television station.—The Professor
