Blanding's Castle, a 6 episode mini-series of some of the PG Wodehouse stories. BBC production with Ralph Richardson in the lead role. Only first episode seems to have survived the BBC wipe.

Unfortunately the Irish Times archive copy for some of the days is unreadable. If anyone has any information on the dates missing I'd update the listing.

Due to the poor copy the fact was missed that the new autumn RTE schedule had started. The big event was the new course in spoken Irish, Buntus Cainte, which started on 25th September. In school we were all told to watch it.

I have fond memories of children's series "Captain Zeppos", a Belgian TV series dubbed into English, also shown on BBC 1.

The closing title sequence with the very catchy theme by Bert Kaempfert is on Youtube.

I was wondering if RTE ever showed Camberwick Green. It was clearly an inspiration for the Jimmy Quin produced Bailebeag which RTE showed from mid 70s (ran into the late 80s, not sure if these were repeats)

I read in that recent book on Irish animation that Ballybeg was made instead of being the Trumpton serials

Christmas in single channel. In our house we had at least BBC 1 as an alternative. They were showing Steptoe and Son and Dr Finlay's Casebook, and the film was "The Inn of the Sixth Happiness"
