What year did the first ever Sunday show appear in Britain ? 

March 1962, April 1973 or May 1979

Please also state where you found your information....:)

Hmmmm, my answer is March 1962. I was showing regularly, well before the 1973 date, and I attended many Sunday shows, particularly Sanction Shows, which don't exist anymore. :)

I remember going to Championship shows in the 70's where they held Sunday Services for all to attend so my guess would be 1973

Don't know - didn't start showing until 1980
Have tried to search unsuccessfully on internet.

I would agree with nursey and say march 1962 as I too remember sunday shows before 1973 or is it my memory now playing tricks on me??

Come on, what is the real answer?

From my paperback book by Teresa Slowik  - The Ultimate Dog Quiz book - published by Ringpress in 1995

Answer  April 1973

Does anyone know (I have the answer in my book)

Why was Crufts cancelled in 1954 ?

Pam (before I was born!)

It was canceled due to an electricians strike..:)

That would be the first Championship Show I think as I know that I went to lots of Sanction & Limited shows on Sundays well before 1973 as many of the venues were not available on Saturdays

Up your hand up if you ever went to a show in Leeds (not the Champ Show)in the Corn Exchange I went there several times before 1973 on a Sunday & was there when the wind blew in the glass dome in & the show was abandoned, we met our Champion to be Beardie that day in 1974.
