      The musical themes for Bod have been my internal soundtrack for my whole life - a whole parade of perfect melodies and riffs that I first heard as an infant and which still fill me with joy nearly 50 years later. I only recently thought to look up who actually composed these and was astounded to discover that it was Derek Griffiths, who is the earliest face I can remember outside my own family (along with Fred Harris, another Play School presenter of the same era). He's a hugely talented man who genuinely helped make the world a better place.

    Living in the US, I was only familiar with the British shows that appeared on PBS, including those that were on Masterpiece Theater on Sunday evening and the lineup of comedies on Saturday night and weekday afternoons. So I didn’t know many of the actors in this video. Of the ones I did know, my favorite is Penelope Keith. “To the Manor Born” was one of my two favorite shows. My other favorite was “As Time Goes By” with Dame Judy Dench. I was very pleased to see that Penelope Keith is also a Dame - a very well deserved honor!

Jenny Hanley was my schoolboy crush and I still have two telegrams reminding me to watch Magpie as I had sent in a piece of ironstone in the shape of Murgatroyd the Magpie. It was sent to a girl that painted stones and she painted to look 'even more like Murgatroyd' as Jenny said as she held it up during Newsdesk. She sent it back to me with a signed letter! -swoons at the memory- I still have those too. Some of those included I've had the pleasure of meeting over the years were Richard O'Sullivan, Michael Palin, Bill Oddie and Joanna Lumley -Swoons again-!

Thought Patrick Mower was looking better now than he was back then, and Penelope clearly has a portrait in her attic! Great to see that so many people who gave us joy are still with us, Especially Stanley Baxter! Although we lament those that we have lost and will lose.

    Thanks for another nostalgia-fest, Stu ! I remember all these actors and presenters. Probably my fave series of the 70s was "Rising Damp" so it was nice to see Don Warrington included. I think Frances De La Tour is still with us as well. Also nice to see Michael Crawford from "Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em". I thought Michele Dotrice as the long-suffering Betty might get a mention, but maybe another time. I saw Tom Baker once doing a book-signing through a shop window around 1979/1980. Once seen, never forgotten, lol.

    We've lost a fair few over the years and every time another household name from the 70's passes away it feels like they're the last one from that era (though I haven't owned a tv for twenty years now so lot touch bit). It's good to know so many are till around and quite a few are still active.
