    Omg I loved this! At the end of the series, I went up to my bedroom and cleared a space for the carpet to alight on my bedroom floor, and that the phoenix would be my friend.
    Didn't happen, did it?
    Story of my life. I'm 53 now.
    Finally getting it.

    I am from Italy, many of the best series I remember as a children there were British. The ones I found out again are The Phoenix and The Carpet, Bagpuss, Worzel, and of course, Doctor Who. I am also searching for another series that was broadcast in the afternoon, it was a science-fiction series (I think) which had some sort of human-like extraterrestrial dressed in a white tunic or something. They were strange in a fascinating way (as all these series were) and at the end of each episode they looked at a globe or something. They looked like extraterrestrial hippies or something. Another series had a girl with a magic beetle. Please let me know the titles if you know them. Thanks!

    I remember this being shown on a Wednesday afternoon, there was one time when I was at my friends house after school , this came on and about 5 minutes into it there was a power cut. I remember walking home and there were no street lights or anything on. The only lights were from the cars driving along various roads.

      The original 1976 series was released on DVD by BBC video a few years back. I'm sure you can get it still on DVD if you go to Amazon, although if its out of print you may still be able to get a used copy from a reseller. Make sure you get the 1976 version though as the series was remade in 1997, also by the BBC.
