My knowledge of year-to-year men's fashion isn't extensive but I do notice trends and, pun intended, common threads. In the first three frames above Hugh Fraser, as Captain Hastings in Agatha Christie's Poirot, is wearing a charming knit Henley in a subtle orange color with two pockets. It looks like a single pattern cotton knit, fairly thin. It was filmed in 1988 or 1989 for the episode Murder in the Mews (1/15/89). I'm not sure if it's actually vintage but it very well could be, as it would only have been about 50 or so years old at that point. [Bonus 1978 Richard Carmody in the background, played by Christopher Brown.] In the last four screencaps from All Creatures Great and Small (1978), Tristan Farnon (Peter Davison) is wearing a similar collared orange Henley in the episodes Calf Love and It Takes All Kinds. It appears to be more woolen than cotton and lacks pockets. There is a tiny button at the back of the collar so it can remain turned-down and it has buttons at the v-neck collar like a typical Henley. There is also a nice knit zig-zag design. Again, not sure if this is vintage, but if it originates from the time period (1937 in this first season) it would only be about 40 years old in the late 70s. Both sweaters are lovely!
Taking a small break from bounties! Finally found something that fit just as nicely as the armor that I'm comfortable with indoors. I'll be back soon with more vocoder logs.

A plaque in the Little Angel on the Bridge pub in Henley shows where Grace once stood – proving that there is interest in her vertical as well as her horizontal.
