This week showmen and their puppets from all parts of the country and abroad, will be congregating in London for the twenty-first anniversary exhibition of the British Puppet and Model Theatre Guild.
This afternoon and evening they join forces in the Television studio to present an all-star puppet parade, culminating in a specially arranged Danse Macabre of witches, devils, ghosts, and skeletons. The programme also includes a Puppet 'Picture Page' with its own miniature compere, introducing figures of historical interest.
