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 (The Gardner), Murray Melvin and Matt Zimmerman. With contributions from directors Glyn Edwards and Neville Green, composer Terry Trower, writers Lee Pressman and Grant Cathro with costume designer Ray Childe.
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.
For a limited time only you can pre-order this DVD for £12.99, saving £2!
