  • The 100 Greatest Kids' TV Shows
    The 100 Greatest Kids’ TV Shows UK TV compilation marathon : 2001 : dir. : Channel 4 : ? min prod: : scr: : dir.ph.: …………………………….……………………………………………………………………………… Guest pundits: Ref: Pages Sources Stills Words Ω 8 M Copy on VHS Last Viewed 5500 2.5 0 0 1,287 - - - - - No August 2001 Broadcast Channel 4: 27/08/01. The last few years of the 20th century presented the media with a perfect occasion to conduct their own ad hoc round-ups of the century’s most influential people, most important films, best popular music etc etc. So 2001 is perhaps a little soon to be dipping back into the same baskets, yet Channel 4 has strewn the year with surveys similar to this one (see for example “Top Ten Teen Idols”). One might think such retrospectives were a clear invitation to the over-25s to bask for a short while in the kind of programming they used to enjoy – a brief escape from a television saturated with material aimed at the apolitical, pill-popping post-Thatcherite generation, breast-fed on tabloid culture. Ah but no, Channel 4 are too shrewd for that. Their retrospectives are chiefly an opportunity for that same generation to thumb their noses at everything which preceded their own miraculous lives. And so it goes with this one. It’s some reflection on the value of their poll that the two programmes topping Channel 4’s list were not even children’s programmes anyway! – “The Muppet Show” (no.2) and “The Simpsons” (no.1) never purported to be made for kids, were never broadcast in children’s TV slots, and hence not surprisingly are best favoured by adults.

  • For Immediate Release the WORLD's OLDEST TEDDY BEAR
    For Immediate Release 30 August 2006 Contact: Zoë Schoon 020.7752.3121 [email protected] THE WORLD’S OLDEST TEDDY BEAR MUSEUM TO BE SOLD BY PRIVATE TREATY AT CHRISTIE’S SOUTH KENSINGTON The Teddy Bear Museum, Stratford-upon-Avon South Kensington – Christie’s are pleased to present, by private treaty, the sale of the world’s oldest Teddy Bear Museum, based in Stratford-upon-Avon. The award-winning museum was opened by self- confessed teddy bear enthusiast and well known broadcaster Gyles Brandreth and his wife Michele, on 4th July 1988. Since then, this popular little museum has gone from strength to strength in one of England’s most celebrated towns. Stratford-upon-Avon attracts five million tourists annually and visitors to the Teddy Bear Museum have ranged from royalty to Tony Blair’s bear, Lynton, who recently spent his summer holidays at the Museum. The collection, personally put together by Brandreth, numbers a thousand bears and related items. It is to be sold as a going concern, along with the Tudor building (once the property of King Henry VIII) that has been its home for the last 18 years. “The Museum has come of age and it’s now time for us to find new owners for the museum and its unique collection. Our children are all grown-up and my work commitments mean that I simply don’t have the time to give it the care and attention it deserves. We want to find new owners for the Museum who will love it as much as we do and see it go from strength to strength.” Said Gyles Brandreth Highlights of the collection include several early Steiff bears, the earliest being Growler, a much- sought-after Steiff rod-bear, circa 1904.

  • For April 2021 – by Eileen Truby You Are Holding a Dinner Party for 5 Gues
    U3a Creative Writing Group – “Writing prompt” for April 2021 – by Eileen Truby You are holding a dinner party for 5 guests plus yourself. The guests will be well known people, not necessarily living, but who have contributed to society in some way. Write about why you chose them and describe briefly conversations they would have had with each other and set the menu for the dinner. The guests I would invite are: Ventriloquist Peter Brough and his ventriloquist’s dummy Archie Andrews Ventriloquist Keith Harris and his puppet Orville the Duck Annette Mills and her string puppet Muffin the Mule Harry Corbett (magician and puppeteer) and his glove puppet Sooty the yellow teddy bear. Charlie Drake - Comedian/singer/slapstick artist Host - Eileen Truby The menu would be plain and simple and preferably something that could be eaten one handed as most of my guests would be using one of their hands to manipulate their puppets. I’d choose: Tomato soup with croutons so the guests wouldn’t have to mess about with breaking and buttering rolls. Homemade fish and chips, preferably served in newspaper (easy to pick up with fork or fingers). Finger bowls will be needed for use before dessert. Jelly and custard for dessert (easy to eat with a spoon). Drinks would be beers, wine, soft drinks and tea/coffee. I’ve chosen these guests as they remind me of the innocence and carefree days of my childhood. My children look at me as if I’ve gone mad when I tell them I used to listen to a radio program that starred a ventriloquist dummy called Archie Andrews.
