There are several anniversaries today. My granddaughter was born in Cornwall eleven years ago. BBC, the British Broadcasting Corporation, was founded one hundred years ago, in London. Is the BBC important to my granddaughter? She watches TV, certainly. She likes “Horrible Histories” - it's funny and informative. But there are many other companies. There were no programmes for my mother, when she was young, no radio nor TV. Her brothers constructed a “cat's whisker” radio. When I was young I listened to “Children's Hour” (5 o'clock, tea time). One house in our street got a small television (black and white). I sometimes saw “Muffin the Mule”, a jointed puppet with strings. I am older than the Mule!
