This episode has some downs but a lot of ups as we celebrate on of the greatest series the BBC ever made! Listening to Gethin’s loves and respect to the legacy of Blue Peter is incredible just as it is heartbreaking to hear what happened to the show once Richard left. He knows Peter very well as well as Gethin, being that he hired Gethin! Richard is the one who interviews these brilliant men but also parts of Richard’s story is weaved into the narrative too. Richard had been working on the show for years with finally taking over the show in 2003. What holds these two interviews together is Richard Marson.
Peter was a presenter during the glorious 70’s while Gethin was a presenter just as the series made a very serious change that would forever change the lineage of the program! These two gentlemen did the same role at very different times. Gethin had been a Blue Peter presenter from 2005-2007. In another interview with speak with Gethin Jones. We decided not to talk about Doctor Who but focus on his time on Blue Peter, talk about the good times and also the times that were frustrating. His love and knowledge of the program is immense. Peter Purves was a presenter Blue Peter from 1967-1978. We wanted to celebrate the golden era of Blue Peter and talk to some folks involved with the programme! Although still on CBBC, the good ol’ days come from when it was on BBC1.
Blue Peter was such a facet of BBC television for so many years.
