Alex heads down memory lane with a celebration of some seemingly-forgotten 1970s television… ), this nostalgic DVD set is real televisual selection box.
These discs feature the shows that were made for the very young.
Hickory Housewas possibly formerCoronation Streetactor Alan Rothwells finest hour.
Ah, such innocent happy days!
Some young actor called Peter Davison turns up between stints on that Yorkshire Vet show as host ofStorytime.
Derek Guyler plays theLaughing Policeman.
Theres origami fun with Itsy and Bitsy inPaper Play, held in check by erstwhileMagpieheadgirl Susan Stranks.
or Its time… to brush our teeth!
Think of a benign version ofThe Clifton House Mystery.
The plot sounds like one of those half-remembered storylines one finds on cult TV Q& A websites.
However, the second disc addresses the often BBC-dominated genre of quality kids drama.
A charming reminder of TV gone by.
One or two shows are available in more extensive DVDs of their own.
Look Backis an interesting venture.
I await the release of the best of the 80s sometime soon.
However, the discs are only as good as the material chosen which is best described as mixed.
