Maggie

I was a teenager when this came out. I recently spoke to the lady who played Maggie and she sadly said there were no recordings made for retail which really makes me sad. I wanted to be Maggie. I still can remember the theme tune by B A Robertson. I was sad when it ended and no more were made. It was kind of an escapism for me as I was the girl who got bullied at school. Does anyone know if there is a platform I can watch any of the episodes on? I'd love to watch it again. I'll cross my fingers and hope someone knows. They don't made tv like they used to that's for sure. Thanks for the memories Maggie.

I was just eleven when this came out but this story of a smart working class girl resisting her parents' desire for her to get a job, marry and settle down, aiming instead for university, stuck with me. Kirsty Miller was great as the feisty Maggie. And the theme tune by BA Robertson was extremely catchy. I still find myself occasionally singing 'Maggie won't be a teenage bride/ Maggie against the tide/ she accepts the adversity/ she always knew she could/ To attend university/ and so far its so good'!

A great supporting cast too, especially Michael Sheard and Mary Riggans playing her loving parents who are somewhat perplexed by their daughter's untraditional ambitions.
