They don't make presenters or programmes like this anymore. Content and class....long vanished in favour of multiple intros, voice overs, background music and graphics.

This show was a little before my time and was meant to be a rival to Blue Peter on ITV. Although TV presenter Tommy Boyd was one of the presenters on this show and spilled over to 80s kids TV where I watched him on early morning Saturday show 'Wacaday', 'Jigsaw' and 'The Saturday Show'.

⁠​⁠@@jayrox40not really,it was much better during shah’s reign but the country wasn’t entirely free,there was no free speech in Iran and the shah was viewed as a holy figure and a simple insult could get you imprisoned or even executed,now we don’t even have the right to choose what to wear
