The Magic Roundabout PDF Download

The Magic Roundabout is a place of fun and friendship. It's a place where everyone can gather to talk, to play, to think quietly or just to sit on a wooden horse and twirl sedately round and round... One of the all-time classics of children's television, Serge Danot's highly original visual style combined with Eric Thompson's understated, dry and witty scripts made The Magic Roundabout an immediate hit with the British public. Created in 1963, at its peak The Magic Roundabout commanded over eight million viewers. No other children's series reached an audience of even half that size and the series even rivalled the news as the UK's most-watched programme. Today a whole generation of children treasures the memory of The Magic Roundabout, its characters and its stories. The Little Book of The Magic Roundabout is a fully illustrated small format book that uses stills from the original TV series with the best quotes from all our favourite characters. Dougal, Dylan, Florence, Brian, Ermintrude and Zebedee are all here as the original puppets with quotes taken from Eric Thompson's scripts. 2005 sees 40 years of The Magic Roundabout and this little book will tie in to celebrations including release of the CGI animated film on DVD.
