Timeline
It is documented in Richard Marson's book Blue Peter 50th Anniversary.
Peter Duncan (born 3 May 1954) is an English actor and television presenter.
In films, he appeared as Francois in the sex comedy On the Game (1974), the guitarist Kevin in Stardust (1974), Kit Nubbles in Mister Quilp (1975), the luckless Richard in The Lifetaker (1976), and in a brief role in the film Flash Gordon (1980), with his character dying after a few minutes on screen.
Duncan starred in an episode of the children's television programme Storybook International as a young master in the tale of 'Cap O Rushes'.
Duncan played leading roles in the BBC's King Cinder as Kerry, and as Jimmy Carter in the 1977–1978 ITV children's television series The Flockton Flyer.
He was a presenter of Blue Peter in the 1980s, and made a series of family travel documentaries between 1999 and 2005.
He joined Blue Peter in 1980, and shortly afterwards it was revealed in a tabloid newspaper that Duncan had appeared nude in the Michael Papas psychological thriller film The Lifetaker.
In The Times the BBC denied that he was ever a porn star.
Unusually, Duncan had two periods with Blue Peter, being on the team from 1980 to 1984, and again from 1985 to 1986.
During his stay with the programme, he became associated with the kind of daredevil stunts previously popularised by John Noakes, and these continued in his own spin-off series, Duncan Dares.
One of his most remembered such stunts occurred in 1980 when the Blue Peter crew put him out on a rope swing to clean the face of Clock Tower (Big Ben) without a safety harness, thus creating much trouble for the BBC.
He ran in the first London Marathon in 1981 (in 3 hours and 10 minutes) and ran again in the 1991, 2001 and 2012 events.
He was scheduled on 3 October 2021 to run for the final time.
After leaving Blue Peter permanently in 1986, he returned to the stage, most notably in Mike Stott's Funny Peculiar and in the musicals Barnum, Me and My Girl and The Card for which he was nominated for an Olivier Award for Best Actor in a Musical.
In the 1990s he appeared in numerous pantomimes, some of which he also produced through his company Here's One I Made Earlier, including Robin Hood at the Lewisham (now Broadway) Theatre in South East London.
His notable television roles include work on The Tomorrow People, Space: 1999, King Cinder, Play for Today, Warship, Oranges & Lemons, and season 2 of Survivors.
Between 1999 and 2005, Duncan filmed and produced three travelogue documentary series.
Each series consisted of six episodes and featured his family embarking on backpacking trips around the world.
The family also consists of Duncan's wife Annie, and their four children: Lucy, Katie, Georgia and Arthur.

The series was aired on Five and Sky Travel.
