Well we had a tv ... somebody must have had one or there would have been little point in making the programs! My grandfather thought it an extravagent waste of money but that didn't stop him from watching it! My great aunt came to stay for 2 weeks in about 1957 so as to watch Wimbledon on TV. By that time my father had updated the set to the monumental dimensions of 17in no magnifier! |

We didn't have a tv till 1955, but I remember all those progs and loved them! I also loved Muffin the Mule and had the puppet. Whatever happened to it I wonder. :-S They are worth a lot now. :-S I also loved Prudence Kitten with her sister Primrose. |
