Notes

This was just a small part of a 35 minute TV documentary about Stig Anderson. The SVT Örebro team followed him on this forthcoming trips around Europe.

ABBA are seen in the studio recording "Dancing Queen". Here we see the original second verse being sung. This clip of "Dancing Queen" in the studio is regularly used in ABBA compilation programmes.  But this is the programme it was filmed for.

There is a three second clip of Björn strolling past the telex machine at Polar's offices looking surprised there was a camera there.
