    Review DISCUSSION -CATWEAZLE: THE MAGIC RIDDLE - Episode 14

    Actually the second series did very well ratings wise, and America bought into the magic. Overseas sales were good, but Bayldon himself was adamant that two series was enough. Catweazle by episode 26 knew too much according to Bayldon. The magic depended on Catweazle being awed by what he saw...

On the DVDs Carpenter and Bayldon both agree that Warren really became a " Catweazle" boy and understood the role after a...
