Childrens tv series
7 Answers
I have just had one question answered regarding a tv show from 20 or so years ago and i've just half remembered another.
All i can remember is there were some children staying in house and to amuse themselves they decided to put on a play, because it was only them they made themselves an audience with dummies, as in dummies made from old clothes and stuffed with rags etc. they also had faces. If i remember rightly these dummies came to life and were quite evil and were after the children, i also recall a garden with a gate or a door to it.
I know its all a bit vague but this program really scared me when i was younger and there is an advert on at the moment for vauxhall Corsa with those puppet things and it reminds me of it in a scary way.
I hope someone can help me!!! In one way or another.

I seem to remember the series being based on an E Nesbit story and The Phoenix and the Carpet and The Enchanted Castle were both made into tv series in the 70's.
I've got a feeling it's the Enchanted Castle - weren't there also dinosaur statues or something in the garden.
