My Fair Lady (1958 TV series)

My Fair Lady was an Australian television series which aired from 1958 to 1962 on Wednesdays on Melbourne station HSV-7. Little information is available on this series. It was originally part of a line-up titled Home, which featuring various segments including Cooking, Home Decorator and Shopping Guide.[1] Later, it appears the Home branding was dropped. For part of its run it aired at 2:30PM.[2] At one point in 1959 it was the first show on the station schedule for the day (this was prior to Australian television being a 24-hour service), while at another point in 1959 it was preceded by US anthology series episodes of shows like Four Star Playhouse.[3]

The show is described as being aired live, compered by June Finlayson and featured Charles Bush, and featuring contestants,[4] suggesting it was a game show. Other hosts during the run of the series included Vikki Hammond.[5]

Archival status is unknown, but as Australian game shows (and daytime series in general) were rarely kept during the era the show aired in, it is likely the series is either lost or largely missing.
