It is the oldest travel review series on UK television, showing every year from 1969 until its demise in 2007.

The first presenter was Cliff Michelmore who remained with the series until 1986.

In 1974 ITV launched its own travel show, Wish You Were Here.

The locations would be reviewed based on criteria such as amenities, attractions, and hospitality.

Despite the programmes interesting locations and resorts, it garnered a reputation for featuring destinations that the majority of viewers would be unable to afford.

In 1986 it was replaced with The Holiday Suite written by Simon May, who also composed the EastEnders theme.

This theme was used throughout the 1990s and 2000s until the programme came to an end after 37 years in 2007.
