Notes

Story number 2932A. The celebrity looks like Noele Gordon but is listed in the news file as ? which is surprising as Gordon was a well known personality on ATV at the time. The Kam Ling was an early Chinese restaurant in Birmingham (on Livery Street) operating from the late 1950s. Not clear what is being opened in this item.
