Title: John G Smith - A Pebble Mill Legend
Post by apcwmwl on Sep 10^th, 2020, 11:01am

So sad to announce the demise of John G Smith. Producer/Director Pebble Mill Birmingham 1972 - 1987 and then principal of White Rabbit Productions. He died on his 77th birthday September 9th. in Heartlands Hospital, Birmingham following an extended period of treatment for a bowel complaint.
He will be remembered for his outstanding and extraordinarycontributions to Pebble Mill at One from items like Dreadnought Submarine, Ark Royal, Harrier Jet landings, and a myriad of music features with international artists such as Barry Manilow, Barry White, Gloria Gaynor, Joan Armatrading Culture Club, Tony Bennett,etc.
Broadcast television was his passion. His like will never be seen again.
