I must admit to being a big fan of this series when I was a kid. it seemed to be on every morning during the summer holidays, even though there were only 13 episodes. It's a real shame the BBC destroyed the dubbed version, it would be nice if it could be restored and aired once more, or put out on DVD. The theme tune is one most people of my age can remember, and probably sing along still after all these years, I've even got it in my i-tunes collection (sad I know).
The show was originally made in 1965 and was a thirteen part serial although a bit like Mr. Benn there always appeared to be more episodes than there actually were. Julia was played by the late Helga Anders who sadly died in 1984 from a heart problem.
Julia is a young teenager who goes to visit her Uncle Dimitri who lives in the country. She decides to stay there and help with the horses he owns.
