Sportsman bar 1973

Jim Brogan's, Sportsman Bar, Coatbridge. 1973.

A week's booking at the Strand in Hope Street, Glasgow.

Cash prizes totalling £50.

The opportunity of being heard by the leading people in the entertainments business.

That is the top award in a competition which was run at the Strand, one of Glasgow's most progressive cabaret rooms, during the week starting November 30, 1970.

It is not so much a talent contest as a shawcase to spot entertainers of the future, and, if they measure up, there could be work for several of the entrants. The attractive feature about it is that it will last for only one week, and will not, as in so many similar shows, drag out for months. There will be four heats from Monday till Thursday, the semi-final on Friday, and the final on Saturday.

The final will be judged by a panel from a wide field in the Scottish entertainment business, including Scottish Television, the B.B.C., and a well-known recording company. The show will be run as a production with comedian Ray Jeffrys introducing the acts and doing link man.

There will be four finalists, with the winner getting a full week's paid work at the Strand and £25. The other prizes are £15 and two of £5.
