Why Don't You Just Switch Off Your Television Set and Go and Do Something Less Boring Instead? (BBC children's series, 1973-95)
Stockport Corporation Leyland Titan PD3/14/East Lancs No.71 (KJA871F) was painted light blue and white for this BBC show. It was supplied by the Museum of Transport, Manchester (thanks Bob Wingrove)

A summer 1975 show features a young lad in Blackpool whose mother runs a bed and breakfast. Allan Haynes worked on the filming: "He is mad on trams and is well in with the Corporation Transport. He has access to the depot, changes the points on the seafront, etc. We had an open boat tram at our disposal for filming for half a day."
