Published 3 years, 2 months ago
Description

It’s 1994 and the BBC is looking for a brand-new children’s TV series.

TV producer Anne Wood decides she’s going to make a show aimed at an audience that’s never had programmes made for it before – two and three-year-olds.

She tells Melanie Stewart-Smith the fascinating story of how spacemen and technology inspired the creation of one of the most popular kids TV shows of all time, Teletubbies.
