Season 1, Episode 14

Ohimennen was the most popular series in Finland, run on YLE in 1965-66 approximately every 2 weeks. It consisted of not just studio performances, but interviews with the stars, so it's not impossible that The Hep Stars also gave an interview. This is listed on IMDb who confirmed this appearance, but it's not known what song(s) they performed - but most probabaly it was No Response or Whole lot-ta shak-in' goin' On as the Hep Stars on Stage LP was released in November 1965 and they performed these songs for other TV shows from this LP.
