How (TV series) How (TV series) How was a British educational television show created by Jack Hargreaves. It was produced from 1966 by Southern Television, for whom Hargreaves was a presenter and deputy programme controller. It lasted until 1981, when the company lost its franchise to TVS. "How" was originally devised by Hargreaves for an audience of adults returning from the pub. Its aim would be to give facts and demonstrations that could settle arguments or be used as pub tricks. A one-off pilot was broadcast at 11.15pm on 22 March 1966, to viewers in the Southern Television area only. Following the pilot,
The Story of the Youth Who Went Forth to Learn What Fear Was row, he could learn how to shudder, as well as win the king's daughter and all of the rich treasures of the castle. Many men had tried, but none had succeeded. The boy accepted the challenge and went to the king. The king agreed, and told him that he may bring with him three non-living things into the castle. The boy asked for a fire, a lathe, and a cutting board with a knife. The first night, as the boy sat in his room, two voices from the corner of the room moaned into the night, complaining about the cold.
