There is a bust of Petra in the ''Blue Peter'' garden. It originally stood in front of BBC Television Centre but was moved to the garden in 1984 due to redevelopment works. During the 1990s it was revealed that the original (unnamed) puppy had died a few days after her first appearance on the programme. Instead of informing viewers, the programme's producer Biddy Baxter bought a similar-looking replacement puppy, which was subsequently named Petra by the viewers. |
