The Original Paddington At Christmas

Paddington’s Christmas, 1976

These days the popular bear is entertaining audiences in cinemas but back in the 1970’s he was just making his first foray in television.

The first series had debuted back in January of 1976, so,  after a short break the little bear returned for a one off festive episode.

The episode was based on a story entitled “Christmas” from the original 1959 book “More About Paddington”

Summary

Paddington’s first Christmas with the Browns is a success: he is showered with presents, and has also bought some lovely gifts for all the family.
