Colin Buchanan - Colin's First Studio Play School 1993

These people were the best adult influences in my crappy childhood. Very special to me

This episode is rare I remember this series also featured James Valentine (who did the Afternoon Show around that time) This series was quite short lived in the Play School broadcast rotation, not doing the six or seven years a normal Play School series would do. Colin was one of the few presenters who did not have an acting background (he had a teaching background) but still fitted into the show perfectly. He was also involved behind the scenes writing many memorable 90's Play School songs.

Awesome! Loved Bernita, John & Colin!

I have never before seen anyone attempt to do a giraffe in Old Macdonald. That man is both brave and a genius.

James Valentine was also featured in the Ning Nang Nong series as a guest saxophone player

CcOLLINNnN!!i! I love Colin!! He's one of my favourite people!

[@imjustsomeguy72]

***** Older than that. I'd say 30? But who cares - one of Colin's gifts is that he apparently doesn't age.

[@laurawellauer33]

Wait a second... *****​ do you know the first commentator?

[@richardw5253]

No, it's a public post, but I deleted my comment so now his comment doesn't make sense.

[@laurawellauer33]

Ahhaaa weird!

I wish they would put up the 90s-05 series's. I think there was one with Noni, Justine , etc in it. Justine & Andrew did a segment with flowers. Also where is the 2006 Birthday one. I think it had all cast old and new in it and they sang zoom while flying around

If this is Colins first appearance on play school, I think it would have to be before 1993, because he was in the "out and about" episode which was 1992.

[@sp19822]

This might of been filmed in 1992 and first aired in 1993.

[@JWPetros]

I think Colin's hairstyle is still the same today :D

[@MegaDave142]

this is amazing- is it just me or did that series end a bit too prematurely?

[@marlywithey8911]

Dave Curtain play school still exists....

[@MrXavierRose]

Used to love Colin's Cd's as a kid! But then he went toward the Christian type of music, couldn't relate to it, sadly.

[@timmycarey1958]

That is sad indeed.
