  • "Silken Page" - the shots list has got rather mixed up here, what actually happens is that Peter Noble shows a still photo of Genevieve Page and explains that she's about to star in The Silken Affair.

    "Vera Ellen" should read Vera-Ellen.

    "Marcel Helman" should read Marcel Hellman.

    Note that the name of Van Johnson should come after Marcel Hellman - these are two different stories.

    "'London Coliseum / Colosseum" - it's the London Coliseum.

    Esther Williams, mentioned in the shots list, is pictured with her husband, American actor Ben Gage.

    Note that the last two paragraphs of shots are not in this clip - it cuts out during Adele Lee's aria.
