The Golden Age Of Children's TV - "It's A Bit Like The A-ha Video"
Manage episode 464003959 series 1402484
Tim Worthington has a new book out called The Golden Age Of Children's TV - all about the best, worst and most just plain baffling shows you grew up with in the sixties, seventies and eighties - and the lines are open now for an hour of fun, facts, laughs and thrills. School's out but Emma Burnell is here to take the register for another term at Grange Hill. Mark Thompson will be dropping by to explain why they keep talking about 'bins' in Running Scared. Send in your puns for Al Kennedy, who'll be giving out prizes to any that could work as a Count Duckula episode title. Justin Lewis will be joining us for a live link-up with Emu's Broadcasting Company, and Genevieve Jenner will be going behind the scenes for a look at how they make Faerie Tale Theatre. So if you want to join in the fun - or just swap a copy of You Know The Teacher (What A Smash-Head) for a copy of Count Duckula 2 Featuring Tremendous Terence - ring the show now!
You can get The Golden Age Of Children's TV in all good bookshops, and from Amazon here, Waterstones here or directly from Black And White Publishing here - and if you want to know more about what you can find in it, head for timworthington.org!
