Wizbit was a 1985 BBC children's television show in which an alien magician called Wizbit and a large rabbit called Wooly had adventures in a place called Puzzleopolis.
Although it was stated in the show that Wizbit's year-and-a-day mission was to find out all about planet Earth, this clashed somewhat with the events witnessed on screen. Wizbit was to learn about everyday life on earth by solving puzzles in a town inhabited by walking, talking sponge-balls, dice, magic wands, playing cards and 7-foot-tall rabbits.
The show made an attempt to be semi-educational. The puzzles Wizbit was set were usually presented to the audience at home, with the solutions being revealed towards the end of the episode.
The show was created by Barry Murray, who had formerly been Mungo Jerry's record producer, with assistance from conjuror Paul Daniels. It starred Daniels and his assistant Debbie McGee.
Its theme tune was based on a song by Lead Belly, named "Ha-Ha This A Way", sung by Daniels.
Wizbit's magic word was "Ostagazuzul
