  <title>THE SCARECROW OF ROMNEY MARSH with Margaret H. Willison</title>
  <description>On February 9, 1964, Ed Sullivan introduced a band from Liverpool, England formerly known as The Quarrymen to an estimated 73 million viewers of his primetime CBS variety show. And down the dial on NBC, the anthology series Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color drew an audience of something less than 73 million for the first installment of its three-part The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh, an adaptation of Russell Thorndike and William Buchanan's novel Christopher Syn starring our man Patty McG as an 18th century man of the cloth* by day/masked-smuggler-by-night who helps the common people by... paying their taxes, we think? Using the funds he earns from smuggling brandy and tobacco. He also helps them elude the pressgangs who roam the marsh looking for reasonably able-bodied youngish men to abduct into King George III's Royal Navy. *Specifically, a &amp;quot;fuckable vicar&amp;quot; in the estimation of our generously oversharing special guest Margaret H. &amp;quot;Hula Hoop&amp;quot; Willison, whose effervescent personality really ties the room together. (Dang. That's the wrong Coen Bros. reference.)&amp;amp;nbsp; The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh Teleplay by Robert Westerby, from the novel Christopher Syn by Russell Thorndike and William Buchanan Directed by James Neilson Original airdates February 9, 16, and 23, 1964 Write to the Citizens Advice Bureau at adegreeabsolute dot gmail!
