Bagpuss was made in the 1970s by Oliver Postgate and Peter Firmin in a Barn in Kent where they also made The Clangers, Noggin the Nog, Ivor the engine and Pogles Wood. Bagpuss, like their other programs, possessed a very special warmth and intriguing quality to it that has never quite been topped by any modern day kids TV. The fact that it was voted the best all time children's TV program on a recent BBC poll, and is still shown from time to time just shows how this little brand of film called Bagpuss made such a deep and lasting impression in the minds of those who watched it as a child.
