Sooty Show's Matthew Corbett on Teletubbies remake

5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

The Sooty Show presenter Matthew Corbett said that remaking a children’s television programme will not work "unless you can take the person who loved it with you". His comments came after Anne Wood, original creator of the Teletubbies, told the Radio Times that she will not be watching the new version of the children’s television programme. The Sooty Show has been remade several times but Corbett said: “I knew how to do it; they didn’t know how to do it.” This clip is originally from 5 live Drive on Tuesday 17 February 2015.
