Start Here! Adventures into Science


British scientific kids TV series, 12 episodes
-Year: 1982-1983
-Year in film: 1980s
-Country: UK
-Who in bibs: girl Vicky ~12 ? 
-Available on DVD: VHS only
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: often ?
-Rating:  5/10
-Rating: *****
-Comment: A young girl in green bibs (pictured), I don't know her real/complete name and don't remember this series, maybe I have seen it in the 1980s. Boys and girls from London made some experiments hosted by the robot Konrad. Also an older girl ~15 (without bibs). There is one episode on YouTube with the German title "Alles Klar mit Konrad - Magnetismus Teil 1/2" which I found by coincidence (bad image quality). But bibs looks great. Aka just "Adventures into Science"

Update: The original posts (like most 2011-2012 posts) missed some info and link to the update 1 (that missed 2 more pics). Girl first assumed to be 10 yo. Later there were 7 comments here (while being on wordpress). I'm adding the relevant info.

Text updates: One more UK clip in better quality.

Thanks anonymous for commenting on my old blog. She looks younger to me here  (I thought 10) but she should be 12 or 13 and always wearing (these) bibs.

I can't give a higher rating unless having seen more pics or clips.

Thanks very much Raphael for sending me some pics 3 years later (rem comments in  2013 and pics in 2016). (Pic 2 I took myself from a YouTube clip (rem also from Raphael) and replaced the old one to better show her face).

One more pic rear view and showing the robot in the update.

Update from comments: All kids wore the same clothes in every single episode. ... Green OshKosh bibs with labels....

Adding update link 1 and a 2023 one with the 2 pics

These are OshKosh B'Gosh bibs. I own the full series (on VHS only, and unfortunately I have no chance to digitalise them). She wears these bibs in every single episode. There are camera shots that caught her very close so you can see everything: the buttons, the braces, the sliders, the bib pocket, the back label - everything! Besides, she looks very cute. It's a phantastic series not only because of her, and I'm very proud I own it.

Thanks very much for your infos!

Btw it's not difficult nor expensive to digitize VHS.

I will try as I have some other tapes that should be converted. When I succeeded I can send you some pictures. Anyway, I guess she's older than 10. I appreciate her to 12 or 13 years.
