It was produced by the BBC and originally ran from 1 October until 5 November 1980, with another series from 18 August to 29 September 1982.
[1][2][3][4] The programme was set in a fictitious junk shop, with its shopkeeper played by Cant, who would deliver a monologue to camera.
At the end of each episode, he would wind up and set off a traditional clockwork toy, upon which the camera would focus whilst the credits rolled.
The theme music is an edited version of the track "Keystone Capers 2" by Eric Peters from the KPM LP Electrosonic (1972).
