Info: Pic from a (different) 1992 episode. I think in Germany there were just 2 episodes of snippets made for usage at school.

I also found a working book from 1967.

There are also ELT (book) series called Focus on Britain Today and Focus on Great Britain. Not sure if all this is the same, sequels or completely different.
