As a kid who watched this first time rounfd when aired. Myself and my sister were mesmerised by this show. Indeed it was one of the big shows watched by millions of kids with their parents. I think we (the kids) loved Tony as he actually spoke to us, not down to or at us.A real class guy and immensely talented.

Like wise as a child growing up it was great to watch this show learnt so much from Tony hart, sadly I have not seen a show like it since. Tony hart was a very remarkable artist, he had a gentle approach and children and parents love it show and then you had morph and the dragon each week getting into mischief. Sadly I think morph was destroyed recently the original from tony hart show.

We used to watch take hart after school n the main thing we watched was the gallery (n morph) n we’d av competition with my brothers in Liverpool to see who’d b the same age as the kid who painted the picture the most “I’m 9 !!” “I’m 7!!” was all you’d hear, thanks 4 this.

Take Hart was one of my favourite programs as a child. There was so much to learn from it. I used to decorate plain T-shirts by pulling one over a plastic tray, lay down some [negative image] patters and stencils made from whatever suitable material I could find (e.g. wax paper) and spraying it with successive applications of diluted bleach. When washed the remaining pattern stood out with crisp clean edges, and it even allowed for half tones. While adult supervision wasn't really a big thing back in those days, it's nonetheless recommended.

@Liofa734 жыл бұрын
Matt Etheridge --- Kids don't grow up brainwashed, they are a product of their times, just as we were and look where that got us... Getting on here criticising the youth of today is something you'd have been appalled that your parent were doing when you were a kid. Our kids today a a lot more open minded than our generation ever were, with regards to race, sexism, homophobia etc. It's our generation and the previous few that have ruined the country for the youth.
