Blue Peter was a popular BBC television program.
History
Faction Paradox attacked the Blue Peter garden in 1996. This caused a far more intense psychological reaction than any direct assault on the people's psyche. (EDA: Interference: Book Two)
When in 2006, a alien ship crashed into the Thames, Blue Peter presenter Matt Baker did a feature on how to make an alien ship cake. (DW: Aliens of London)
In 2008, Maria Jackson watched an episode in which the presenter, Gethin Jones and Konnie Huq promoted the Bane's soft drink Bubble Shock. (SJA: Invasion of the Bane)
Other information
Ace, who left Earth in 1987, appeared to wear a Blue Peter badge on her jacket.
Behind the Scenes
In real life, Blue Peter has had a longtime association with Doctor Who, being used on many occasions to promote the series and upcoming episodes, monsters, and special events. The series has run a number of contests over the years involving Doctor Who. The Abzorbaloff from 2006's Love and Monsters originated from a Blue Peter "design your own monster" competition. (A longstanding rumour to the contrary the Krotons did not originate from a design a monster competition.)
Historically, the series has proven valuable for not only featuring contemporary interviews with actors and behind-the-scenes personnel from the series, but also providing glimpses into production history. A 1973 installment of Blue Peter marking the 10th anniversary of Doctor Who included numerous excerpts from the William Hartnell and Patrick Troughton eras; due to the BBC's then-ongoing mandate of junking old episodes, these clips are in many cases the last surviving remnants of these episodes. This includes such significant moments from the series as the death of Katarina in The Dalek's Master Plan and the regeneration of the First Doctor into the Second from The Tenth Planet.
For many years, the series also had another connection to the franchise in the form of co-host Peter Purves, who appeared on Blue Peter for many years after his tenure playing Steven Taylor during the Hartnell era.
