==Overview==

'''''Multi-Coloured Swap Shop''''', more commonly known simply as ''Swap Shop'', was a children's television programme that aired on Saturday mornings in the UK on [[BBC One]]. It ran from [[1976]] until [[1982]] and was thought by many to be a response to the growing success of ATV's ''[[Tiswas]]'' - although the latter had not yet aired outside the Midlands. ''Swap Shop'' was hugely popular with its target audience and used innovative ideas such as the [[Phone in|phone-in]] to engage the audience.
