Ferien in Lipizza (1966–1967)
The Best Childrens serial of all time bar none
15 March 2004
Ferien in Lipizza AKA The White Horses,Dubbed into English at De Lane Lea studios london in 1968 and shown throughout the 70s until Jan 1978

when the BBC apparently destroyed the UK dub.The German original language films still exist and live at WDR studios Germany. Julia comes to stay at the Lipica stud on a long summer holiday,from Belgrade.The structures of the stories are well suited to Horse fans and also any one that wants to sit back and dream of far away places.Well that was what most of the children watching did when the series was first aired on BBC1.The theme song sung by Jacky (only the uk version) is perfect to introduce this dreamy series.The director obviously has an affinity with horses as this shows in the carefully placed cut aways to the Animals..Overall a masterpiece worthy of repeating (if only).
