1967: FRED the TORTOISE is REALLY A GIRL | Blue Peter | Animal Magic | BBC Archive

"Fred, you are a lady." The moment Blue Peter viewers are told that Fred the tortoise is really a girl. After four years on the show, it is revealed that Fred the tortoise is, in fact, female - thanks to a letter sent in by eagle-eyed viewer, 10-year-old Tessa Knighton from Great Horkesley, near Colchester. Fred's story becomes international news and on the following week's episode of Blue Peter, Fred is renamed Freda. Clips taken from Blue Peter, originally broadcast 1 June, 1967 and 12 June, 1967. Please note, some parts of this video contain poor quality footage. Blue Peter is still going strong, with new editions of the show broadcast live on CBBC and BBC iPlayer every Friday at 5pm: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode...
