The Ed Sullivan Show, originally titled Toast of the Town, was a pioneering, long-running American entertainment television program, which aired weekly from 1948 to 1971. Hosted by a former newspaper columnist and broadcast live from New York City for most of its run, the program introduced countless performers to American audiences.
The series provided many iconic moments to television history, in particular a series of three performances by Elvis Presley broadcast in September and October 1956 and January 1957. The Doctor and Rose Tyler attempted to travel to New York to attend the 28 October 1956 performance by Presley, but ended up instead in 1953 London. (DW: The Idiot's Lantern)
