Name That Tune (1956–57) was hosted by Bruce Gyngell and featured contestants who had to guess song titles from the brief excerpts being played live in the studio by the Gus Merzi Quintette.

In this episode, future television personality and Logie Award winner Jimmy Hannan appears as a contestant.

Name That Tune is credited as Hannan's first television appearance. This particular episode was a return appearance for him, so is likely his second time on television.

The program was sponsored by The Australian Women's Weekly magazine, which is heavily promoted throughout the show.
