Go through the Magic Door to see how bread is made in a bakery.
'Bosco' presenter Philip Tyler knocks on the Magic Door to see what might be special on the other side.
Knock, knock, open wide, see what's on the other side, knock, knock, any more, come with me through the Magic Door.
We follow him through the door and into a bakery where two bakers put ingredients into an industrial mixer. They weigh the dough and place it into trays. They use another machine to make Vienna rolls. The trays of uncooked bread are placed in a huge oven. 'Bosco' presenter Gráinne Uí Mhaitiú notes,
The bread is going round and round inside; it has to get nice and brown.
A buzzer sounds to signify that the bread is cooked. One of the bakers carefully removes it from the oven. Gráinne Uí Mhaitiú exclaims,
Oh I can smell it already. Lovely and crusty.
This episode of 'Bosco' was broadcast on 6 May 1986. The presenters are Philip Tyler and Gráinne Uí Mhaitiú.
The children's programme 'Bosco' began broadcasting as a two-week pilot in June 1979 aimed at pre-school children, with the programme proper scheduled to begin in the autumn of the same year. The show is presented by a 5-year-old pint-sized puppet named Bosco who lives in a box. He is joined each week by a selection of grown-up presenters for fun and games. Bosco’s puppeteer is Paula Lambert.
