Who said "I'll give it 5", it was an old pop music programme?!
Question: Janice Nichols - I think I've got the right spelling and it probably was Thank Your Lucky Stars
Answers: Janice Nichols - I think I've got the right spelling and it probably was Thank Your Lucky Stars
The Programme was Juke Box Jury
Quick bit of research.
It wasn't but it's a common mistake
Apparently it was Janice on "Thank your lucky stars" . A programme with a segment that mimicked JBJ

I think it was Janice on Juke Box Jury
it was a lady called monica rose who said that
It might have been "American Bandstand". They would have the teenagers on the show "rate" a new song. They would say things like "I give it a 5. It had a good beat". Or "I give it a 7. It is easy to dance to". American Bandstand was generated in Philadelphia in the 1950's (1952-1989)and it's host was Dick Clark. It was very popular. I'm in my 50's and I watched it.
I remember her well, it was Janice Nicholls who was on Juke Box Jury between 1962 (When I joined the RAF) until the show ended in 1965.
She was seventeen at the time and became famous with her strong Midlands accent, "I'll give it foive".
Janice introduced the Beatles on their first professional TV appearance on 'Thank your lucky stars'.
She is from Hednesford and now at the age of 59 is a manager for Scholls in Beatties, Wolverhampton, overseeing three chiropody clinics.
It was definitely Janice Nicholls - on 'Thank Your Lucky Stars' not 'Juke Box Jury'. Participants on 'Juke Box Jury' voted records 'hit' or 'miss' not out of 5.
She was called Janice, a very young ,pretty dark haired girl with a strong `Birmingham` accent. The program was Juke Box Jury and she was one of the first people with such a strong regional accent to be seen and heard on TV. One of the programs was recently shown on T.V, during a `pop history` session.
