50 years of Blue Peter
16. Oct 2008 at 19:53

Blue Peter has just recently celebrated 50 years Shocked

Having grown up with Blue Peter, I have my favourite presenters.

Best of all is John Noakes whom I absolutely adored. He and Shep could do no wrong. His greatest achievement was free falling 5 miles as the 1st civilian in Britain to do so Wink

Other favourites are Valerie Singleton and Peter Purves. Wink

I was wondering if any of the OOFers liked Blue Peter, or were perhaps inclined like Mr Dusty to prefer Magpie, because it had Jenny Hanley (blond bimbo) in it. Undecided

Who if any was your favourite presenter?
Kiss

Ah Dusty you are still young enough not to remember the first male presenter who partnered Valerie; Christopher Trace - lovely man Kiss

, who never apparently got over finishing with the show. Cry

I missed a lot off Blue Peter as a kid ,lived in Germany as me dad was in the army out there so only really remembered it with john noakes(Down Shep!!!) and the rest of the crew , wasnt till 1974 that used to watch it regular , was a rush home from school to watch it

. we never had the bbc telly out in germany unlike now so we had to watch german telly or listen to BFBS , oh how things have changed, so many things to watch and most off it rubbish, wish we could turn back things to a simpler time Wink
