1994 at home to Widnes is probably to easy an answer so I’d guess it was a cup game ?

No it wasn't a cup game or the match against Widnes.

Went a couple of times with my dad in the 70s when I was a nipper but began being an actual fan around the time John Sheridan took over maybe a little earlier but not much but can’t think of anything live on tv, was it earlier than this ?

Yes it was.

Geoff, I think it was against Leeds sometime in the 1960,s.

You think right Richard.

Leeds were a Division 1 team & the Dons were a Division 2 team

Now can you tell me the reason the Dons played this match against Leeds?

I'll take a guess that it was in the Eastern Division Championship.
I remember reading an article in the Free Press years ago about Leeds v Doncaster being on TV. I've tried to find details on the BBC Genome project which lists every programme broadcast, but without success. Was it on ITV ?

Yes it was the Eastern Division game played at Headingley Leeds September 22nd 1962 Leeds 21 Dons 10 Attendance 8700 live broadcast on BBC Grandstand.

Can you give details of the first ever rugby league game to be broadcast on live television from Tattersfield?

Clue.
Roger Millward was a player in the game

v Hull KR or Cas ?

Sorry Paul it wasn't either of those two teams.

Wild guess, an international fixture of some description? (Trial or warm up game pre World Cup).

Sorry it's none of those.

Another Clue.

Two Counties.

Yorkshire v Lancashire
(Roses fixture)

You have got one of the teams correct it wasn't a roses match.

Cumbria?

it was actually Yorkshire v Cumberland

Two matches were played on the same day can you give the details of the matches ?

Roger Millward was one of the best players on show & the Dons showed an interest in signing him but they decided he was to small to make the grade six months later Castleford signed Roger.

Time to move on as nobody seems to know the answer to the question.

Sunday March 1st 1964

Yorkshire v Cumberland Under 17's

Yorkshire v Cumberland Open Age

Admission to the game was free due to the Sunday Trading restrictions which changed in 1967

Can you name the title of the comedy-drama movie that a number of the Dons players took part in?

Stanley Baker was one of the actors who starred in the film.

Another Clue

The actor who played Alf Garnetts son-in-law also starred in the film

Well it's not This Sporting Life ... Baker was intended to be the lead but missed out when a film he was working on over-ran.
