Compiled by me using IMDb, TVBrain, the ShadowMusic forum, The Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision, BBC Genome Project, YouTube, and various newspaper and magazine articles. I have very little info about some about the earlier TV appearances in this list.
You are welcome to use this but it took a while to put together, so some credit would be nice! Any additions or corrections will be appreciated as well.
This list is only for The Shadows as a group - I'm making a separate list of TV appearances for Hank Marvin on his own (either representing The Shadows, or as a solo artist).
All performances are mimed unless otherwise indicated.
Abbreviations of Shadows members and session musicians:
AJ = Alan Jones
AH = Alan Hawkshaw
BB = Brian Bennett
BW = Bruce Welch
CH = Cliff Hall
DL = Dave Lawson
GA = Geoff Atherton
GF = George Ford
HM = Hank Marvin
JF = John Farrar
