    Love the fact that 17,000 children bothered to actually write something down, put it in an envelope, write the address on it, buy a stamp and post it. BRILLIANT.

    The episode where Shep gets his name. What a find. After Shep died, John Noakes couldn’t do an interview where Shep’s name was mentioned without crying. Never was there a more public bond between Man and Dog than with Noakes and Shep.

      He actually refused to look after Shep after the BBC stopped paying him for it, so somebody else had to look after him.

      Every episode of Blue Peter bar one I think from memory survives from 1963? Biddy Baxter refused to let BBC engineering wipe any episodes. The BBC film library was forbidden to junk any filmed reports as well. Blue Peter has got one if the best survival rates of any live programme on UK TV incredibly.

    'Coin chipping' was not something I'd heard of.
    The last pure silver florins (2 Shillings) were minted in 1944 and many remained in circulation well into the 1980s' as the (post feb.1971) 10 pence coin.
    The 2.5 pence value 'sixpence' (tanner) survived too, well beyond decimalisation.
    There were 12 penniies (12d) to one shilling and 20 shiliings to one (£1) pound. Dead easy!
    A gallon of petrol (around 4.5 litres) for your car cost around 3 shillings (15p) and you could take a girl out for a nice restaurant meal with wine for under £3.00 - I have old receipts to prove it!
    A brand new Ford car (focus equiv.) cost around £600.00, while an Aston Martin or Rolls Royce would set you back £5-6 thousand - about the same as a nice 4 bedroom detached house.
