Champion House is a BBC television drama series.
The series dealt with the Yorkshire-based Champion family and the dramas surrounding the family textiles firm, Champion Mills. Two series were made between 1967 and 1968. The cast included Edward Chapman, Nicole Maurey, Maurice Kaufmann and Virginia Stride.
Champion House was created by Hazel Adair and Peter Ling, who had previously devised Compact and Crossroads.
The series was a casualty of the BBC's wiping policy of the era and no longer exists in the BBC archives.
Famous quotes containing the words champion and/or house:
“Let’s not quibble! I’m the foe of moderation, the champion of excess. If I may lift a line from a die-hard whose identity is lost in the shuffle, “I’d rather be strongly wrong than weakly right.””
—Tallulah Bankhead (1903–1968)
“Instinct.—When our house burns down, we even forget our lunch.—Yes, but we go back to it later in the ashes.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
