About This Show

Makes, Bakes and Outtakes. On October 16th, 1958, Blue Peter sailed onto our TV screens. 60 years and over 5,000 episodes later, an elite group of ex-presenters gather to receive an award celebrating this extraordinary anniversary. Featuring famous faces including Peter Purves, Janet Ellis, Peter Duncan, Mark Curry, Tim Vincent and surprise celebrity guests. Devised by Tim Vincent, scripted by Olivier Award-winning writer Tim Whitnall and steered by director Ian Talbot. A blisteringly funny and poignant tribute to the world’s longest-running children’s TV programme.
