Jackanory: The Saturday Man: In Business

Joe Melia tells The Saturday Man by Roy Brown
Joe Melia has already told traditional stories about London on Jackanory. This week he returns with more London stories, but these are brand new, specially written by Roy Brown as a Jackanory book.
The Saturday Man is a junk collector, who regularly, once a week, drives his horse and cart up to Primrose Estate. One Saturday, he finds four willing helpers - or are they?
'The Saturday Man' is published today by the BBC, price 3s. 6d. Obtainable through booksellers or by post (4s. 3d. inc. post/packing) from BBC Publications, [address removed].
