I'm trying to catalogue all of Gilbert's television appearances.  At the moment I'm concentrating on British television because that's what I most familiar with.  I have purposely omitted repeat showings of the same performance on programmes like Top Of The Pops and TOTP2.  I have had great help in getting this far and I would appreciate any further information or pictures that anyone out there may have, that might help fill in some of the gaps, no matter how small. Please email me.
