Alphabet Castle

Overview

Alphabet Castle was an educational children's television program produced in the UK. It began in September 1993 with a series of 27 episodes aired on ITV Carlton, and ran until December 1995. It had three main characters: King Alpha, Queen Bet, and Gobbledygook, an animated turkey. It starred Stephen Cannon and Joanne Campbell. A total of three series and 65 editions were produced, by Michael Cole productions. Like its near namesake, Alphabet Zoo, a decade earlier, each episode was dedicated to a letter of the alphabet; episodes were generally around 10 minutes in length, and were broadcast in CITV on Wednesday afternoons.
