New York Show

Carol talks about appearing in New York for the first time since the Garry Moore show. She says the guests are David Frost, Eileen Farrell and Marilyn Horne. Since there are two opera singers there is a lot of music on this episode.

Eileen Farrell sing O Mio babbino caro from Puccini and then goes into a medley of. A song about lonely in the city and then goes into Swanee.

Carol and Harvey play a low class Southern couple who want to buy a Rolls Royce from snobby English salesman David Frost. The couple sound like early versions of Eunice and Ed Higgins.

Marilyn Horne sings from Barber Of Seville.

Vicki tells of going to the Broadway show Company and introduces Carol, Eileen and Marilyn who sing You Can Drive A Person Crazy from that show.

A Zelda and George sketch has him dreaming about being in a gladiator movie but Zelda invades his dream.

The last sequence is one of the best mini musicals. Frost introduces an Italian version of Cinderella. Eileen and Marilyn are the step sisters and Carol in the title role, they all do funny Italian accents, Carol tells them to Shuta yo face. She sings Woe is Mio to the tune of O Sole Mio. Harvey is the fairy godfather and Lyle is the prince.

Carol talks about pollution, sings her theme and the guests sign her book.
