Created by the French author Serge Danot in 1965, the Le Manège Enchanté (The Horse-gear Magic) had over 500 episodes made between 1963 and 1967.

The translations of Le Manège Enchanté series were done by Eric Thompson (Father of the actress Emma Thompson), who was at that time working as a presenter on the childrens program Play School.
Once Eric Thompson was chosen to do the voices and narration of the programmes, he decided not work from the translations of the French scripts but made up stories to fit the pictures as he went along!

In case you ever wondered just WHY it was so colourful, it was used as test for the SECAM process & became the symbol for this technology. At the rate of 24 frames a second, there are 7500 images needed for each 5 minute episode!

"Tournicotti-Tournicotton", as Zébulon might say ...
