Blue Peter, the longest running children's programme in the world - and quite possibly the best loved - began on 16 October 1958. It was created by John Hunter Blair and first presented by Leila Williams and Christopher Trace. The programme was 15 minutes long and scheduled to run for only 6 weeks. It became the programme we recognise today following the appointment of Editor Biddy Baxter in 1962, since which time it has been a cornerstone of 麻豆约拍 children's output.

Blue Peter presenters have been asked to undertake a wide range of inspiring adventures over the years, from John Noakes riding a toboggan down the Cresta Run, to Helen Skelton walking a high-wire between the chimneys of Battersea Power Station. But they often perform less hazardous tasks in the studio, such as the celebrated "makes" - cookery and craft projects made with household objects such as "chocolate bean tubes" and "detergent bottles".

Blue Peter has always had a strong connection with its viewers, rewarding participants in the show with a coveted Blue Peter badge, as well as getting them involved in the annual charity appeal. In 2013 the involvement was taken a step further as viewers voted for a new presenter, eventually choosing Lindsey Russell to sit alongside Radzi Chinyanganya in Salford, the programme's home since 2011. Blue Peter now goes out on the dedicated children's channel C麻豆约拍.
