Jonathan Routh | Television Work

Following a success with Candid Radio, Routh started Candid Camera around 1961 for ABC TV. Following a long dispute with the American lawyers of Allen Funt as to who held the rights to Candid Camera, Routh moved on to new fields, working with John Beard for Granada TV, along with Germaine Greer and Kenny Everett in Nice Time. He also worked in television advertising on spots such as J. Walter Thompson’s for Smarties and Kellogg’s Corn Flakes, appearing also in some spots himself, for example, Newcastle Brown Ale.
