    OK, so they put out a recording of a later, Brighton gig, which is covered by Discogs - https://www.discogs.com/release/749291-The-Promenaders-The-Promenaders. The repertoire is pretty similar.

    From what I can gather, the 1st medley consists of these tunes : Nellie the Elephant / My Grandfather's Clock / Al Capone / Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend / Jingle Bells / My Old Man's A Dustman / Deep In The Heart Of Texas / (a 50s/60s film theme I couldn't place) / Side by Side / Wooden Heart
    Rock Around the Clock includes The Hucklebuck & In The Mood
    3 is Chicago
    6 is 'A' Your Adorable
    7 includes Hernando's Hideaway
    9 includes I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus
    11 consists of the Desert Island Discs Theme (By The Sleepy Lagoon) / Tea For Two / Cheek To Cheek / Al Capone / Deep In The Heart Of Texas / Let's Twist Again / On The Street Where You Live / The Sound Of Music

    There are other quotes in passing of course.
