Does anyone have any idea how much still exists of this fondly-remembered series for children that was produced by BBC South (a rarity in itself) during the late 1970s/early 80s? Presented by Chris Harris, "Hey Look.. That's Me" featured him visiting various locations in the South of England on a bicycle whilst towing a small caravan, and was basically an outdoors version of Why Don't You? (namely giving children ideas for things to do) minus the stage school kids, and as the title suggests it also gave children a chance of appearing on television.
And if you don't mind me linking to a YouTube clip, here's the intro to an episode from 1983:
According to Chris Harris' online biography, nine series in total were produced, and I gather that the first few series may have been only shown regionally but later on it was repeated nationally. Lostshows.com lists nothing, but the BFI online database lists one episode from 1978 (?), one from 1980 and perhaps two from 1983, which is very little considering how many were made in total.
If that's all that genuinely still exists from this series either at the BBC or the BFI, perhaps Chris Harris or some of the contributors might have home video recordings of otherwise missing episodes?
