What happens

Open House is an early Australian television series, which aired on Melbourne station GTV-9 from 25 August 1957 to 6 April 1958. The hour-long series aired at 4:45PM on Sundays, and was replaced on the schedule with In Melbourne Today. Like most early Australian series, the series aired in only a single city. Presenters on the series included Jim Wood, Jane Edwards and Peter Lunn, and Hal Todd, with Gretta Miers appearing on the last few episodes. Todd and Miers continued onto In Melbourne Today. The series was of a magazine-format, with interviews, music and guest artists. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
