Patrick O'Hagan Sings was an Australian television series starring the Irish tenor of the same name. It was produced by station ATN-7 in November 1958, and began being broadcast in early 1959. Unlike most Australian-produced series of the era, which were live, Patrick O'Hagan Sings was produced directly on film, with a total of 26 episodes made, each of which was designed to fit in a quarter-hour time-slot.[1] Patrick O'Hagan sang songs in the series.
In Sydney the series aired on ATN-7, and aired at 3:00PM on Tuesdays.[2] In Melbourne, the series aired on station GTV-9 at 3:00PM on Thursdays.[3]
The National Film and Sound Archive holds a near-complete run of the series, as 16mm picture and sound negatives.[4]
A different series by this title aired in 1965 on ABC Television.[5]
