Hooker 3 Muppet Show 5C Citypulse 79 In the -biggest --saleever- made to the British Broadcasting Corporation in one year, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation has sold its miniseries, "Empire Inc.", which received its first showing early this year in Canada. The story of a Montreal businessman whose search for power and money un- dermines his relationship with people and drives him to a life of loneliness and bitterness, the series . was one of the most ambitious ever undertaken by the CBC. Large enthusiastic audi- ences raved about it and critics acclaimed the per- formances of Kenneth Welch, Martha Henry, Jennifer Dale and the many supporting players. The latest sale adds to the list of countries that have purchased the successful series. It has already become the property of Australia, Italy, Spain, Ire- land, Finland, Israel and countries in the Caribbean. Negotiations for the pur- chase are also under way with the U.S. It will be shown in Britain in May. Meanwhile, another major sale has made many people happy, the happiest singing star Tommy Hunter. The CBC has sold 26 episodes of his show to -a cable television company in the US. Tommy has become an institution on the CBC, since the days when he was a singer on "Country Hoedown", on which he first appeared in 1956. He acquired his own show in 1965 and since its beginning it has been a favorite with audiences. It is now estimated that two million viewers tune in to see the show each Friday evening as it has, through the years, graduated to sparkling sets, upbeat musical arrange- ments and live top stars from the Nashville world of country music. It's been quite a stroll for the cowboy boots of this kid who once sang with the CKNX Barn - dance gang! When Tommy is not ap- pearing on his television series, he maintains per- sonal contact with his fans, probably the major reason his show is so popular. He tours the country, en- tertaining at fairs and presenting shows for people where they live. That means a great deal to those who cannot come to him during the TV season.
