I remember this being shown on TV at Christmas time in the 60s. it made a big impression on me as a child.

Peter Montgomery, This is music from my childhood. My Dad loved this and we played our record of it every Christmas, but I never knew it was written for television. Even though I haven't heard it for decades, I still have the music from it, and some of the words in my head.
