Shrunken women board

Not sure if this has been raised on here before but I have been looking high and low for a SW clip from Blue Peter from about 25-30 years ago. One of the presenters, Caron Keating, was shrunk whilst they made a model dollshouse. It is one of my earliest and favourite SW clips so I would be so grateful if anyone did have this. It is a long shot though.

There's an even older one where Val Singleton was magicked onto the rim of a top hat and John Noakes threatened to bite her head off nearly knocking her off balance. The 'magician' on that episode, David Nixon also let a tiny ballerina out of a box and she danced between his hand at one point sitting on one. He treated her like a most-valued pet.

What a treat I must have missed! The 60's was obviously a period when these things were provided as innocent fun, and little did they know what we might think of it today (meaning those of us in the sw fraternity of course).

I'm talking about the 1930's, dear you know Buzzby Berkeley, Spitfires and all that. Don't get me started on the 20s!

This is a real long shot but I wanted to ask about this clip again as a conversation today jogged my memory of it once again. It really is my favourite SW clip so if anyone did have it anywhere to share I would be so grateful.

Ive manged to find it on an old hard drive, its not vevy good quality as it 30+ years old and ripped from a video. Tec wasnt brill in the 90's. Maybe someone can de-pixallate it.

That is brilliant! I have some de-pixallation software I could try. Would you be happy to share and I will give it a go?

I all so really would like to watch Caron shrunk on blue Peter I can remember it was 1988 she looked so cute she had a dressing gown on

Can you remember any of the other details at all?

All I can remember it was after February 1988 my sister was a baby

Let’s Hope one day somebody will will get the clip I been looking for it for the past 30 years

I have recently been having another hunt for this but still no luck anywhere in the usual places such as youtube. Thought I would put the feelers out on here again to see if anyone would have a copy of this clip?
