Bleep and Booster

In 1963 Tim introduced a new creation; "Bleep and Booster" on the BBC television show "Blue Peter". Bleep was a three eyed alien and Booster was his friend from Earth. Originally in black and white, these five minute animated stories captivated the young audience. Using a style of animation where cameras panned around still drawings,   they were simple to make yet very entertaining. The show eventually spun off into annuals and specials and went off the air in 1977.
