Producer Jack Barton heads a team of directors, editors, writers, secretarial staff and a cast who he regards as ‘his family’.
That same ‘family’ are always the first to acknowledge that the great success the programme has enjoyed would not have been acheieved without the dedicated and professional contribution of the technical and studio crews.
The first episode of Crossroads was transmitted on 2nd November 1964.

Each week four episodes are seen by over 14,000,000 viewers, and the programme consistently heads the ratings in the nation ‘Top Ten’ programme charts, and many of its stars have now become household names.
