Once described by the
Guardian as '...time travel drama somewhere between Doctor Who and
Blackadder', it is easy to see why T-Bag defined a whole generation of
children's television.
The series ran for ninety
episodes and four Christmas specials between 1985 and 1994. The show
received critical acclaim from critics and viewers alike; between five
and six million viewers tuned in each week to witness the weird and
wonderful adventures of T.Bag and her sidekick, T-Shirt!
"With interest in T.Bag so
fervent..." explains series writer and DVD producer Lee Pressman, "it
seemed the time was right to track down the cast and crew and organise a
reunion - The Great T.Bag Tea Party - recorded for your entertainment
and delight!"
Featuring interviews
with cast members Liz Estensen, Georgina Hale (T-Bag),
Kellie Bright (Sally Simpkins), John Hasler (T-Shirt),
Jennie Stallwood (Deborah), Jim Norton, Murray Melvin and Matt Zimmerman. With
contributions from directors Glyn Edwards and Neville Green,
composer Terry Trower, costume designer
Ray Childe and writers Lee Pressman and Grant Cathro.
With the aid of behind the
scenes photographs and video footage, original props and costumes, we
take a look back at what made this series so successful.
