Peter Fleming's Dismally Ill-Prepared TV Pub Quiz

Event information

The retired BBC children’s pioneer puts you through your paces, with fearsome rounds on beloved TV memories best forgotten (mainly his).

Which celebrity actually vandalised the Blue Peter Garden in 1983? How many times was Peter banned from the TV Centre canteen? Who was real, Tony Hart or Morph? Those are the first three questions, so get revising.

Teams and individuals welcome alike. Just try your best to keep things running smoothly, because Peter will struggle.

NB. Any prizes, once worked out, are likely to disappoint.

Warped telly nostalgia from award-winning character comic and Blue Peter Silver badge winner Tom Burgess.

As seen and heard on BBC Two and BBC Radio 4.

★★★★ “A comic love letter to a lost world of Reithian values” Stewart Lee.
