From Bill and Ben to Thunderbirds, Roland Rat and Basil Brush, we present an interactive morning of best-loved puppet characters from British kids TV that will take adults back to their childhoods, and children back to the joys of puppet characters and making.
Doors will open 30 mins before the screening for a hands-on finger puppet workshop before watching the screenings and scoring the classics! Toilet breaks and puppet action will take place in between the different episodes for maximum fun and joining in!
