Jonny Briggs

Jonny Briggs is a Children's BBC kitchen sink realism television programme first broadcast in 1985. It revolves around the exploits of a young boy, the eponymous hero (played by Richard Holian), his pet dog, Razzle, and his eccentric family members: Mam (Jane Lowe) and Dad (Leslie Schofield), older sister Rita (Sue Devaney) and older brothers Albert (Tommy Robinson), and Humph (Humphrey) (Jeremy Austin). Another older sister, Marilyn, is mentioned but never seen. The stories often centre on Jonny's school life.

Previously some of the Jonny Briggs books by Joan Eadington were read on Jackanory.

The programme was filmed in Bradford.[citation needed]

The theme tune "The Acrobat" was composed by J A Greenwood in 1936, and recorded by trombonist Colin Buchanan.[citation needed]
