Play Away
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Play Away was a sister programme to Play School in the UK, aimed at slightly older children. It ran from 1971 until 1984. While Play School had a more gentle, intimate feel, featuring just two presenters in a studio with the usual collection of toys and pets, Play Away was much more lively, with a live audience and a format a little like a music-hall variety show.
Presenters throughout the thirteen year run included familiar Play School presenters such as Brian Cant, Toni Arthur, Derek Griffiths, Floella Benjamin and Julie Stevens, alongside such future stars as Anita Dobson, Jeremy Irons and Tony Robinson.
