Hopp

Sara & Hoppity was a children's puppet television series created and produced by Roberta Leigh. It was based on a series of four books written by Leigh and illustrated by Marion Wilson. There were 50 episodes of about ten minutes which ran from 27 February 1962 till 26 February 1963. The copyright date on the first episode is 1960. Sara Brown lives with her parents, above their "Toy Hospital" shop. One day, an old man brings in a broken toy to sell which he found in a goblin ring. The toy, called "Hoppity", can sing and dance, but it is a "falling over dance" as the toy only has one leg. Her parents want nothing to do with the toy, but Miss Julie who lives up in the attic and makes clothes for all the toys gives Sara the money to buy Hoppity. The man accepts six pence. Sara washes the dirty toy and her father finds a leg for the toy, but it is a bit shorter than his other leg. Miss Julie gives her clothes for him, and her mother gives Hoppity two shiny glass beads for eyes. Her mother cuts off a little of Sara's hair and puts it on the bald doll's head. Miss Julie also gives Sara an apron with a pocket big enough for Hoppity. When wound up, the toy dances and sings his annoying: "Diddly dum, diddly dee" song which Sara somehow understands and, being very naughty, Hoppity's ideas often lead Sara into trouble. For example, in the first episode, she cuts all the flowers off her stern aunt Matilda's expensive hat to put in a vase on the dining table.

Today, she lives in exile in Sweden because of the threats and harassment, but Dilya continues to fight the case of her brother and other prisoners with the help of Amnesty International.
