The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe was mainly show during the school summer holidays in the late 1960s - 1970s. It was a superb 13 part black and white adventure series based on the book by Daniel Defoe. It first appeared on British TV back in 1965 on BBC1 and has Robert Hoffmann in the starring role. The ever haunting music that accompanied the series is never forgotten by those children who watched the series during the Summer school holiday breaks. Present here is the first episode of this adventure. The remaining episodes will be uploaded soon.
