Follyfoot was a childrens' television series aired between 1971-1973.
It was inspired by Monica Dickens' novel "Cobblers' Dream".
Aimed at the teenage girls market it ended up with a lot of adult fans, due to its depictions of terrible treatment of animals.
The show had many messages, an absurdly awesome theme tune and sold well overseas.
Many books and annuals followed.
As usual...Look-in did the comics.
These were beautifully drawn by Mike Noble,who left the Time Slip strip to work on this.
Angus Allan is the brilliant story teller.

There's still some work to do to complete my covers gallery for the Marvel UK The real Ghostbusters collected comics but I've filled a few gaps recently and now know it ran for at least 13 issues. Any further help much appreciated.
