One of the earliest children's television programmes produced for a Northern Irish audience, a generation grew up with The Romper Room in the 1960s and 1970s. The daily show was hosted first
by Miss Adrienne and then, Miss Helen.
At the end of each episode,
children would wait expectantly, hoping that Miss would see them through the mirror
she held up: "I can see Peter, I can see Rebecca, I can see
Joseph..."
Tufty was the symbol of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents’s children’s road safety campaign. He first appeared in the early 1950s and is still going today.
