**The Animals of Farthing Wood**
This, by far, is one of my oldest
collections!
In the early to mid 90s (When I was around 10-13 years old), I was
completely in love with this show. At my Junior school I was quite
known for my love of the show and was forever drawing the
characters. Unfortunately, when I moved up to secondary school, I
was often taunted for it by a lot of the other kids there, a huge
difference from my previous school where the other kids accepted it
and would sometimes ask me to teach them how to draw the characters.
I stuck with it until the show's end though, and drifted onto other
things afterwards, but I still have a lot of the stuff that I
had collected through those years and I could never bring myself to
get rid of it.
Apparently, season one of the show has been released on DVD in
France and Germany. I'm hoping for a UK release too, as I'd love to
watch the show again.

The Animals of Farthing Wood Books by Colin Dann
These are the original stories that inspired the TV
show. There are a number of differences from the books
to the TV show, but both are complete classics. The only
two stories that were never shown in the show, was the
Prequel "The Adventure Begins" and "The Siege of White
Deer Park". |

Farthing Wood Friends Magazine
These bring back memories. I had this series on order
down at the local newsagents and every Thursday I would
come home from school and go straight down to collect it
:3 The Magazine was 130 issues long, with an added 4
holiday special magazines (Two summer, two winter). Each
magazine came with a gift, unfortunately I don't believe
I have any of those anymore, except the play-scene board, which came with re-stickable characters in the
first few issues.
I have all 130 issues + the specials (But issue 25 is currently
missing, I'm not sure where it is D:). |
