The Toys That Made Christmas Great

A look at the must-have toys that dominated Britain's gift lists for the last half a century. From Furbies to Teletubbies, and Buzz Lightyears to Rubik's Cubes, this is the story of mile-long queues outside toy shops, and the ecstasy on Christmas morning of knowing that Santa brought you exactly what you wanted. Through archive clips and interviews with the creators (as well as the mega fans who collected them), cameras reveal how toy makers harnessed Christmas magic year after year to make dreams come true.
