CELEBRATING 50 YEARS OF CATWEAZLE!

Created by Richard Carpenter, Catweazle burst onto TV screens in 1970, capturing the hearts of children and adults alike. It starred Geoffrey Bayldon as the eponymous Saxon wizard, who was twice catapulted through time to a 1970s England full of technology that left him bewildered. His companions and mentors in “the new magic” were children, Carrot (Robin Davies) and Cedric (Gary Warren), both of whom he befriended.

Tis Magic! Our Memories of Catweazle celebrates the 50th Anniversary of the series with forty brilliant essays in which writers explore how Catweazle has touched their lives. Extensively illustrated, it boasts a foreword by Harriet Whitehouse, daughter of Catweazle’s creator, and an afterword by Venetia Davies, wife of Robin Davies.

Today, Catweazle is regarded as one of the very best British children’s television series. It remains well-loved and boasts a close-knit fan community brought together by the Official Catweazle Fan Club, which benefits from sales of this book. Now in its second edition, Tis Magic! has been expanded to include a bonus interview with Geoffrey Bayldon, conducted at his home in November 1986.
