Follyfoot was a childrens' television series aired between 1971-1973.
It was inspired by Monica Dickens' novel "Cobblers' Dream".
Aimed at the teenage girls market it ended up with a lot of adult fans, due to its depictions of terrible treatment of animals.
The show had many messages, an absurdly awesome theme tune and sold well overseas.
Many books and annuals followed.
As usual...Look-in did the comics.
These were beautifully drawn by Mike Noble,who left the Time Slip strip to work on this.
Angus Allan is the brilliant story teller.

Thanks Shiner. I think it was the only time that Look-in dedicated a special to a single television show but I could be wrong.
