Famous Five 1970 in German TV
The German Pay-TV station Boomerang started airing the 1970s series, and it seems there will be some reruns.
Success is 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration.

Good news. I wonder why none of the many UK nostalgia channels have ever picked it up?

Good point, John. I often wonder why some programmes get endless repeats (An Idiot Abroad is never off the screen) yet others never see the light of day. I missed the final part of the All Creatures Great and Small prequel (can't remember the title) and it never seems to get a repeat airing. As most digital channels only show repeats, there is a wealth of material that is available to show.

Given that both series were made by ITV then it might be an idea to ask them. We could start a group on FB. They must be looking for new material as I have lost count of the number of times I have seen Rising Damp for example.

And I would be also interested by the way also, whether ITV owns old trailers, pictures, interviews to the serial in its archives. Hope they will aire it again.

Can't imagine this. In my opinion there are only cartoons to watch.
