Overview

Jeff Evans

Join author and TV historian Jeff Evans on a journey through your childhood as he tells the fascinating story of children’s television in the UK.

Jeff’s colourful talk covers the period from the start of television to the 1970s, a golden age for those who grew up glued to the small screen when home from school.

You may remember the earliest stars such as Muffin the Mule and Andy Pandy; or you may recall series such as Crackerjack, Ivor the Engine, Thunderbirds or The Magic Roundabout. This illustrated talk features them all, and much more besides.
