Ah yes Boatbuilder! They got off lightly the Kirrins didn’t they?! I remember watching those episodes pre-Covid and thinking, wow, the things they had to deal with back then.. not like modern today.

Re: '78 series Famous Five Quiz
Hmmm ... perhaps this is a stretch but here's a video version of a 78 series quiz, based on the Hike Together adaptation.
Well, I hope it occupies a few spare minutes in your day.

Here’s a new question:
In which episode does Aunt Fanny remind George to take her hayfever pills [deliberately written into the script because Michelle suffered visibly from hayfever]?

Re: '78 series Famous Five Quiz
I’ll ask an easy one:
Comparing the book Five Go Off in a Caravan to the TV adaptation, what was different about the children’s mode of transport?

Re: '78 series Famous Five Quiz
Any guesses? They were caravans in both cases, but what was different about them?

Re: '78 series Famous Five Quiz
Yes, I’ll accept that. Enid describes the vans as modern and the illustrations in the book reflect this, showing the run-of-the-mill caravans often used by holidaymakers. In the TV series, the vans are the traditional traveller/Romani type, sometimes called vardos.

Re: '78 series Famous Five Quiz
This isn’t really about the 1978 series, so if Nigel doesn’t answer, and nobody else guesses, we may as well have a new question.
