Follow Me! (TV programme)

(Redirected from Follow Me! (BBC TV series))

Follow Me! is a series of television programmes produced by Bayerischer Rundfunk and the BBC in the late 1970s to provide a crash course in the English language. It became popular in many overseas countries as a first introduction to English; in 1983, five hundred million people watched the show in China alone, featuring Kathy Flower.[1][2]

Follow Me! was also shown regularly on SBS Television in Australia between 1981[3] and 1985[4] in tandem with another English tuition program, People You Meet.

The British actor Francis Matthews hosted and narrated the series.

The course consists of sixty lessons. Each lesson lasts from 12 to 15 minutes and covers a specific lexis. The lessons follow a consistent group of actors, with the relationships between their characters developing during the course.
