Great to see Peter is still around, and hear his interview. Really harks back to my younger days watching Blue Peter. Didn't realise Peter had been in Doctor Who as well!
In 1974 I was catching the London train from Crewe station. It was very crowded; I found myself in a last-minute rush for the one remaining seat beside a tall, good-looking man with collar-length hair, it was the seventies; buckaroo! I looked up and saw it was none other than Peter Purves, it was the height of his Blue Peter career. He said, "You jammy bastard" and quick as a flash, I replied, "Don't be blue, Peter!" Needless to say, I had the last laugh
Peter was presenter on Blue Peter when they ran The Train of The Future Competition and like a lot of kids I was a runner up, I still have my letter from Biddy Baxter and luckily Blue Peter replaced the badge for me a few years ago as the old one went missing,
Staggeringly with it for 85. Looks so young

It's amazing how just listening to his voice evokes memories of being a child in the '60s.
Bloomin' eck!! 85!! Fantastic.
I really enjoyed this fascinating and frank interview. Thank you so much.
Glad you enjoyed it!
The voice of "Kick start" .
