I was wondering if Wimbledon 1967 was covered just with OB cameras, I remember David Attenborough mentioning in an interview they only had a limited number of cameras for the start of colour.

IIRC RTE invested in a OB unit for the 1971 Eurovision Song Contest, before they started converting their studios.
