Re: Catweazle

Ta very much for the link, Tex. Very interesting. Bayldon was quite a familiar face on UK telly in the 70s and 80s. I remember in the first series, there was a riddle that Catweazle had to solve in order to get back to his own time, but it is rather fuzzy after so many years.

i HAVE IT IN SERIES LINK SO I WILL WATCH OUT FOR IT

Re: Catweazle

I am old enough to remember watching Catweazle when it was transmitted originally. It is nice to see that it is being shown again for fans old and new to enjoy. It was also featured as a strip in Look-In for a while.

I have a novelisation of the second series, starring Gary Warren (The Railway Children)

Re: Catweazle

Really enjoying the reruns - sad to see that the actor who played Carrot died young, though...

Same here, he had quite a good dynamic with Geoffrey Blaydon.

Re: Catweazle

I still find myself calling things electrickery or the telephone a telling bone... and I haven't watched in a couple of years. I have the second season on DVD along with the first but I could've saved my money as I think I may've only watched two of those. The first couple of seasons of Worzel Gummidge were similarly fun, but the New Zeeland relaunch ones I haven't got the time for I guess.

Re: Catweazle

I also saw it on Saturday, it's a series I've read a lot about but never had the chance to see.

It was fun to see his reaction to elec-trickery, & the telling bone has been featured in a trailer.

Re: Catweazle

Catweazle is a fantastic series, really love it. The Catweazle comic strip appeared in 'Look-in' [I think] and 'TV Comic' or was it just TV Comic? I forget now.
