Classicist @edithmayhall is the guest of @MichaelBerkele2 on Private Passions right now, and it's one of the most compelling and inspirational interviews I've ever heard.
The Wind in the Willows is one of ITV's best children's series. Such a wonderful production boosted further by the excellent David Jason, Richard Pearson, Michael Hordern, Peter Sallis and Ian Carmichael.
The first episode of The Wind in the Willows was originally broadcast on this day in 1984. A Cosgrove Hall production, it featured the vocal talents of David Jason, Richard Pearson, Michael Hordern, Peter Sallis and Ian Carmichael.
Wonderful news! Let's hope that once @MartineBBC is back, others will follow soon.
