Bloody hell, this program was buried in the recesses of my brain and i never remebered or thought about it till i just watched this video. I must have been very young or had a horrible childhood that i blocked out lol. I agree, no wonder i kained so many E's in my teens!
A wizard flying as a kite form whilst in possession of ' E ' ; LOOK, IF IT'S NOT ABOUT SELLING NARCOTICS TO KIDS THEN WHAT ON EARTH IS IT ABOUT ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ?
@barnsburystore i remember that , it was like a film chooped up into lots series'es , at the end of each series you would be dying to know what was gonna happen in the next series . you could not wait to see what happend in the end of it all . . you dont get more CLASSIC than them series'es . . . not even NIGHTRIDER or STREETHAWK could test it ! !
My goodness, this brings back some memories. In my old job, I didn't start work until lunchtime, so I had the whole morning to watch the educational programmes on the BBC and Channel 4! I remember the 'Magic E' character from a series of this show which featured a serialisation of the story 'Through The Dragon's Eye' - I was hooked on this, being the child at heart I am, and never missed an episode!
I teach English to Adult foreigners... and the English final e is such an awkward concept to grasp - I actually still call it magic e... It helps the rule stick in their mind. and I learnt it all that time ago on words and pictures...
Magic E needs Helvetica. That's all I can say about it ^_^

25 years since I heard the "Magic E" song yet I remember it as if it were yesterday. The voice of Derek Griffiths is incredibly evocative.

They really should start showing these kind of programmes again so that the young retards of today can learn to spell.

I went to school in the 90's and I was still subjected to this. A true classic in every sense of the word. T.V. these days is a disgrace!
