Episode 68 of the 'Round The Archives' podcast sees us in a literary mood as we chat to Tim Worthington about his new book 'The Golden Age Of Children's TV'.

We then pop back to 1969 for some rousing songs from Harry Secombe and friends in the colourful BBC production of 'Pickwick'.

Edward Kellett then reads an extract from the first volume of 'Reaching A Verdict' part of his ongoing analysis of 'The Bill'.

Finally, we fall down a rabbit hole, looking at the 1966 Jonathan Miller version of 'Alice In Wonderland' where an amazing cast assemble to be as strange as possible!

That's all in Episode 68 of 'Round The Archives' starring Lisa Parker, Andrew Trowbridge, Tim Worthington and Edward Kellett.
