Introduction by SmartSE

Reflinks will help you to turn bare urls into templated references, hopefully leaving you more time to write and reducing link rot caused by bare urls. The tool visits each webpage that is in a bare reference and collects the page title and some other information automatically, the tool has to be checked over manually to make sure that the references are filled in correctly by the tool. You may have to remove some extra information from the template and add extra details if the tool is not able to find it for you. Some links may be marked as dead links incorrectly as the site blocks the tool, you may wish to manually check these dead links before adding the dead link tag to the article. The tool also does a few other minor maintenance tasks.

'''''Take Hart'''''  is a British children's [[television]] show about [[art]], presented by [[Tony Hart]]. It took over from ''[[Vision On]]'', and ran from 1977 until 1983. The show featured Hart and the animated [[Plasticine]] character [[Morph (character)|Morph]], and other characters created by David Sproxton like 'Smoulder the Moulder', which was a lump of mould which would create props by 'spraying' them out of a spray can. The only other human to appear on a regular basis was Mr Bennett, the caretaker, played by [[Colin Bennett (UK TV)|Colin Bennett]]. The programme won a [[BAFTA]] award for Hart in 1984.

As well as demonstrating small-scale projects (the type that viewers might be able to do), Hart also created large-scale artworks on the TV studio floor, and even used beaches and other open spaces as 'canvases' (to be viewed from a camera-crane). This idea was later adopted by [[Art Attack]].

A regular feature of the show was 'The Gallery', which displayed artworks sent in by young viewers. The easy-listening vibraphone music accompanying this feature - "[[Left Bank Two]]", composed by Wayne Hill - has passed into British TV musical lore. In later series, "Left Bank Two" alternated with [[John Williams (guitarist)|John Williams]]' recording of "[[Cavatina (song)|Cavatina]]", which is also well-remembered by many viewers.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/7837849.stm |title=UK &#124; Magazine &#124; A bit of vibraphone nostalgia |publisher=BBC News |date=2009-01-19 |accessdate=2013-05-26}}</ref>

By the end of the eighth series in December 1983, Hart felt that the format of the show, which essentially continued with much of the format of its predecessor ''Vision On'', had become somewhat outdated and routine. Despite the award of a [[BAFTA]] in early 1984, viewing figures for ''Take Hart'' by 1983 had gradually fallen since the series' heyday in the late 1970s. In an attempt to update the image of the series, ''Take Hart '' was dropped in December 1983, and replaced by the relatively more popular series ''[[Hartbeat]]''.

Some [[2 inch Quadruplex videotape]] master copies of ''Take Hart'' episodes were irretrievably [[wiping|junked]] by Adam Lee of the [[BBC]] [[archives]] in 1993 on the assumption that they were 'no use' and that examples of some other episodes were sufficient. A few months later, access to the material was requested by the head of [[Children's BBC]]'s light entertainment department for a documentary on Tony Hart.
