The Sooty Show is a British children's Puppet series which aired on the BBC from 1955 to 1967 and ITV from 1968 to 1992. It follows the adventures and comedic day to day life of puppets Sooty, Sweep and Soo with their owner Harry Corbett, and in later years, his son Matthew.
The Sooty Show now moves to ITV.
Matthew Corbett now takes over the bulk of the work on the show. Harry Corbett has a segment in each episode where he remembers classic moments.
Each episode of this season has part of a serialized adventure story shown around the midway point, 'The Case of the Black Hand' stars Sooty as Sherlock Holmes tracking down 'The Master criminal'. This is the last Season to have the "filmed on a stage in front of a studio audience" format. From this point on the show becomes sitcom like with the episodes set at 'Sooteries cottage'.
