While an adaptation of the 1973 series appeared at the conclusion of the broadcast of that series, original "Lizzie" books have been in continuous publication in the UK since their publication as Jackanory Story Books in 1974. Though most of the publication activity in the years since the television show ended has surrounded republication of work done in 1973 and 1974, there have been occasional new stories, such as 1994's "Lizzie Dripping on Holiday". The character made a partial return to television when a set of these stories under the general title "Lizzie Dripping and the Witch", was read on "Jackanory" in 1992 by Patricia Routledge; the previous year Routledge had read "Lizzie Dripping by Moonlight" on the same programme.
