Packed with information on fashion, looks and style, this seven-part Channel 4 series for kids was presented by Dawn French – with some help from fashion designer Cynthia Lennon, designer Jeff Banks, Lemmy of Motorhead, textile designers Corolla, hatter extraordinaire David Shilling, The Tube‘s Muriel Gray, singer Helen Terry, Raw Sex, Captain Sensible, Alison Moyet, alternative artist Andrew Logan, and the Brighton football team.
The series aired at 5.30 pm on Fridays and was directed by Derek Burbidge.
During his travels up and down Britain, Derek loved some things and hated others: “If I see any more pink or pastel colours I’ll go spare! For me, Liverpool and Brighton were exciting. They were the two areas that had hope.”
