Episode description
If you grew up in the U.K. in the 80s, you definitely know of SuperTed. But even if you're not from the U.K, there's a good chance you saw this cartoon at some point. This is a look back on a bedtime story that became a hit cartoon show seen in over 120 different countries.
It's a story that has connections to Harry Potter, The Beatles, Disney, and Welsh pride. It's also an incredible tale of sticking to your guns and not giving in to giant corporate interests.
