SIR - Your two-page Remember When...? (T&A, September 23) showed pictures of various members of the Royal Family visiting Bradford over the years including one of the Duke of Edinburgh waving to the crowds outside the Alhambra Theatre, which Emma Clayton in her report purported to be on June 25, 1969.

As I attended what was a Royal Gala Variety performance in aid of the York Minster Fund I can assure her it was actually on June 26, 1969, as I luckily had a seat in the dress circle not far from the Royal Box.

The programme included top acts like Dave Allen, Ron Moody, Malcolm, Roberts, Freddie Davies and Royal ballet stars. Unfortunately singer Matt Munro was unable to appear.
