Ride carpet and see great Phoenix once again. Such a joy. *by B***E on 29 July 2019* Quaint enchanting little tale best seen with a childs eyes. Taken me 43 years to see it again. Was 6 when it was first shown. I enjoyed it, but think when first saw it.Had more impact on me then. Pity i can't go back. But least did get see it again.43years later,is way too long to wait. Story mainly is about, 4 children, Phoenix and Carpet .And adventures they have with it. Is Wonderful tale and reflects a childs imagination. Don't want spoil story 2much . But think it was very good. Best bits i liked, was 'them leaving their Cook on the island' ,maybe she was terrible at cooking.ha.They didn't even worry whats for dinner when we get back home! ha. Cat Burglar guy says ur lovely ,marries cook ha.Yuk barf!. Another bit to watch out for is, when flying on carpet (with hole) ,in background u can see high rises 70s block of flats by mistake. Its Supposed be Victorian times ha! Anyway, i love watching old tv, u see old familiar faces that now sadly are no longer with us.Actors. Memories come flooding back.Where have they and the years gone.How i long to see them all again. Is sad. My brother cryd when it finished at time.. I cry now because carpet took long time to come back to us. If ur young at heart like me, you'll enjoy this. Is Must have for kids from 70s.Soon i'll be in my 70's ha. So take ride on carpet one more time . --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sc/products/109239984-the-phoenix-and-the-carpet-1976-complete-series-bbc](https://www.desertcart.sc/products/109239984-the-phoenix-and-the-carpet-1976-complete-series-bbc) --- *Product available on Desertcart Seychelles* *Store origin: SC* *Last updated: 2026-05-14*
