Magic Window

'Magic Window' (36" x 30" acrylic on box canvas)
Available at ScotlandArt.com

What happened to all those British classics we loved and grew up with, Trumpton, Camberwick Green, Paddington Bear, Rent A Ghost and even, dare I say it, Jackanory!? Why do we not have the friendly face and voice of a Brian Cant greeting us on our screens anymore?

What we now have instead are countless kids channels filled with American style programmes! The magic window to our British childhood culture has gone and I would welcome back the days of the 'off air' transmission screen as a replacement any day!

That would certainlly help prevent our kids saying phrases such as 'Frickin awesome' or 'oh no you ditnt'!!
