That was my thought too. I think we can be forgiven as this was only uploaded 3 weeks ago but it shows it pays to keep searching, you never know when something new will pop up.

Well done Stewart for finding this.

Indeed. He sadly passed away this time last year at the grand old age of 90.

The other presenter, giving us the low-down on sliding pillar suspension, is Tony Bastable - himself the owner of a Plus 8.

Tony was well known as a presenter of the children's programme Magpie (ITV's answer to Blue Peter). An article about Morgan written by him appears in the 1972 Magpie Annual.

Thanks for that Ian

I thought I recognised the other presenter

I used to love Magpie, it was a bit of a guilty secret as my mother was disapproving of me watching children's TV on ITV !!

I think she thought it was all cheap TV with guest appearances from The Bay City Rollers!

Tis Was on a Saturday was another programme I had to watch covertly and then pretend I watching Swap Shop (boring)

It's the price list that covered mine - I was able to work out its cost (it had most options) and what I paid ....

Great find Stewart.
Searching youtube is becoming a more frequent boredom beater!
There is an immense range of subjects in there.
