How (usually stylised as HOW) is a British educational television programme created by Jack Hargreaves. It was produced from 1966 by Southern Television, for which Hargreaves was a presenter and deputy programme controller. It lasted until 1981, when the company lost its franchise to TVS.




History


How was originally devised by Hargreaves for an audience of adults returning home from the pub. Its aim would be to give facts and demonstrations that could settle arguments or be used as pub tricks. A one-off pilot was broadcast at 11.15 pm on 22 March 1966, to viewers in the Southern Television area only.
Following the pilot, Hargreaves felt the show might work better in an afternoon slot, aimed at making facts fun for children. At 5.25 pm on Monday 11 April 1966, Southern broadcast the first programme in the series of How, which would continue in a similar format for the next 15 years. Produced in Southern's Southampton studios, it provided answers to questions beginning with the word "How". Each episode began with the presenters all raising one hand and saying "How" simultaneously (mimicking the stereotypical Native American greeting). Topics commonly covered included science, history, mathematics, and simple puzzles. The formula proved so successful that it was soon broadcast by the whole ITV network and given two slots per week.how is a word

The show was originally presented by Hargreaves alone. He was joined by Fred Dinenage (1966–1981), Jon Miller (1966–1981), Bunty James (1966–1967 and 1970–1976), Dr. Tom Gaskell (1967–1968), Jill Graham (1967–1969) and Marian Davies (1977–1981). Occasional standing for Hargreaves included Barry Bucknell and James Kelway.
The series came to an end in 1981 when Southern Television lost its ITV franchise. The majority of episodes no longer exist.
