‘What's this?’ said Brian.
‘It looks like a book!’ said Florence.
‘And not a very high-quality one at that!’ interjected Dougal.
‘Yeah, but what a great title!’ said Dylan, falling asleep.
‘How exciting! Have you seen this? We’re all in it. It’s the complete story of how we all met!’ announced Ermintrude.
‘Don't remind me!’ sighed Dougal.
‘It looks very interesting,’ said Florence. ‘It brings back such happy memories of Eric and those lovely people at the BBC.’
‘It looks more like bedtime reading to me!’ said Brian.
‘Talking of which...’ said Zebedee.
For the first time, an inside account - the real story behind The Magic Roundabout, as told by the characters themselves. From the sixties to the nineties, from the height of fame to the ignominy of non-transmission and then back to the glories of television broadcasting.
For all those who need to know more and for all those - who should - this is the book on The Magic Roundabout: its characters; its history; its philosophy.
