@johnreppion We all loved Arthur C. Clarke‰Ûªs shows though I am not sure then can be called child friendly these days. Attenborough‰Ûªs show on cryptids was ace.

@EdwinBeatnik @johnreppion Given the nature of the numerous allegations against Mr. Clarke which I will not go into, but which are easily researched and as such, something you can make your own judgement on.
