Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Haringay Stadium/Arena
I am wondering whether anyone has any history on the Haringay Stadium or Arena - if there is anything you could let me have, I would be really grateful to receive it.

Hi Judi, just wanted to let you know that there is a mention of Harringay stadium in Season 2, Episode 6 ('Vergangenheit') of The Crown, relating to the visit of the American evangelical preacher Billy Graham in the 1950s - the beginning of the episode shows the Queen and the Queen Mother watching Billy Graham on television at the stadium, but I couldn't say whether any of the footage shown was contemporary (some of it is definitely a modern day restaging, but The Crown has been known to use news clips from the time it is portraying.)
It's available on Netflix if you're interested :)
Cheers,
Patrick

It's probably original footage, Patrick. Here's one small piece of Billy Graham at the Arena footage we have on HoL. More Harringay Arena videos we host are here.
