Story
Do you ever wonder about interference on your
television screen? It could be Pob - the first character
produced by Ragdoll Productions.
Pob lives inside your television and leaves messages
for his special guests on labels with red and yellow
string in his secret garden.
He sent clues to Dick King-Smith, who was a popular
children's author, to find out what Pob had left him.
Dick explained all of the historical places he came
across and was aided by his lovely black Labrador -
Hattie (who often got too excited looking for what Pob had left them).
Pob left the item they were searching for attached to red and yellow string, and sometimes it was
a joke item - at Dick's expense (which Pob laughs a lot at).
Meanwhile cheeky Pob sends a Magic Box to Rod Campbell to discover what's in it. But does
Rob just open it? Oh no, Rob sits down and draws a device to open it, as he knows that Pob
leaves messy surprises inside.
So once the drawing is done, he goes and builds it, then tries it out and avoid then surprise in the
box.
Also Alan Dart makes things for Pob and shows you the viewer how to do it too. Afterwards Pob
plays with the thing that Alan had made (oh and they were better than what Blue Peter made!).
