Xausted...as you also got a Blue Peter book each Christmas....do you remember the one with the cat door stop made by Valerie Singleton?

Also , does anyone remember the Blue Peter 'Child' they followed - I think his name was Christopher ?
(i may be pushing against an open door here?!!!)

Ooh Finbar, I think we must be twins separated at birth . The Blue Peter baby was called Daniel. I remember John Noakes and Peter Purves bathed him, and they had to apologise in the next program because there were loads of complaints as they had washed both his eyes with the same piece of cotton wool.
It's a wonder I can remember anything about my life at the moment, I've used up so many neurons on Blue Peter.

Report
Finbar · 23/05/2003 13:33

tamum...respect for your memory!!!

Of course he was Daniel!
I also remember reading somewhere that he did not have a very happy teenage and early adult life - hope the cotton wool incident didn't scar him!
