POP+FOLK+ORCHESTER+DRAMA+OPER+FEMALE: Kate Bush - TV Special (Efteling Holland) (NL 1978)

On 12 May 1978, Dutch broadcaster TROS broadcast a 20 minute Kate Bush television special, directed by Toppop director Rien van Wijk and recorded at the Dutch amusement park the Efteling. On 10 May 1978, the Efteling was ready to open the Haunted Castle, the most expensive attraction it had ever constructed, and they wanted to promote it as much as they could.

This is the original broadcast of May 12, 1978. The original 16m film is lost;
this is a copy of the uMatic version that is the only version left.

The Efteling TV Special songs:
• "Moving" was filmed in the square in front of the Haunted Castle
• "Wuthering heights"; Kate can be seen inside the Haunted Castle. Among other things, a smoke machine was used.
• "Them heavy people" was filmed at 3 locations; in the attic of the castle, at the entrance with the oriental spirit and outside in front of the entrance of the well that is part of the attraction 'The Indian water lilies'.
• "The man with the child in his eyes" was filmed by the lake with gondolettes and swans
• Strange Phenomena, has the double shot with the mirror image and was filmed in the castle's catacombs.
• "The Kick Inside". Kate has gray hair in this shot and is lying in a boat surrounded by flowers on the lake and sailing away. This scene conjures up images of Elaine and The Lady of Shalott, classic poetic figures from the Arthurian legend.
