Lesley Judd interviews Otto Frank - the father of Anne Frank - who has made a special visit to Britain to show Blue Peter viewers his daughter's original diaries. Valerie Singleton, meanwhile, reports from Anne Frank's house in Amsterdam on the story behind the diary.

Originally broadcast 10 May, 1976.


To mark the BBC's 100th birthday, our wonderful archivists have been asked to pick THEIR favourite BBC moments.

"It was a sensitive, memorable interview, in the last year before Otto Frank's death, a perfect example of the BBC's commitment to outstanding television for children - respecting its audience and not talking down to them, delivering the 'inform and educate' principles as strongly and purposely as they did for adult audiences." - Deborah.
