A heads up for Monday 21 December on BBC Four.
7.35 Play School - 20/10/1976 A chance to see an episode of the classic children's programme, presented by Carol Leader and Lionel Morton. Featuring the story of the Ugly Duckling and the poem of the week by Robert Graves called Henry Was a Worthy King.
8.00 John Craven's Newsround
8.10 Blue Peter - 1974 edition. Items include Petra the dog's 12th birthday and Bonfire Night
8.35 Grange Hill - A memorable episode of the children's drama looking at life in a London comprehensive school. Zammo tries to borrow money from Roly at the arcade. Julia and Laura's attempts to attend the all-night party end in disaster. Originally broadcast in 1986, this is the episode that started the Just Say No campaign
9.00 From Andy Pandy To Zebedee: The Golden Age Of Children's TV - Nigel Planer narrates the story of the struggle to make programmes for children in the days before everything went digital.
10.00 Top Of The Pops Christmas (1979)
An evening of archive children's tv that's not to be missed.

Top shout Windy, I'll be watching that. Shame the GH episode doesn't feature Tucker Jenkins from my era.

Thanks for the heads up Windy, I must remember to program the Betamax and set it to 'Timer'.

I'm looking forward to Monday night. All of these were top favourite programmes of mine in the day. It's definitely a night to tape, Sam.

Me too, I've got a blank 195 minute BASF tape ready to go and I'll clean the video head beforehand.

Might watch or PVR it. So ironic that Grange Hill/'Just Say No' campaign in retrospect featured actors who to greater or lesser degree where using or even selling some form of illicit drugs at the time. LOL!
