When I was six I won a Blue Peter competition by correctly guessing the number of metres of cable in the studio (don't recall the number, but I pitched it very high). The official prize was a set of not very good books. However I got a tour of the BBC. It was like going to magic land, or Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. Back then the BBC did far more in-house so the Blue Peter studio literally had a Tardis in the scenery dock. It sparked in interest in film and TV that I've never entirely shaken off.
