0887 The Bewitching Bathing-House

04:40pm - 04:55pm Monday, 2nd February 1970

  If you've never met the Moomins - or even if you have - you might not know who, or what, they are. Moomins live in Moomin Valley, somewhere in Finland, and Tove Jansson has written a prize-winning book about their Wintertime adventures. Moomin's adventures, which have amused Finnish children for many years, are now told by Alan Bennett. You will hear what happens when the first-ever Moomin wakes from his hibernation and finds out what fun Winter can be.
