This was, supposedly, a children's serial from Granada and was televised over the winter of 1969/70 and the theme tune was called 'Swan Song'.

It had supernatural elements and was, apparently based on a tale from the Mabinogion.

It was also the first fully scripted colour production by Granada Television, filmed mainly on location in Wales.
