Karen Grassle who played Caroline celebrates 50 years since the launch in 1974 of Little House on
The Prairie.
The then new show from America would pull in huge audiences all around the world including in the UK where it had a prime time slot.
Here Ashley talks to Karen about working with Michael Landon (which was fraught for a time), her child co stars who grew up during the course of the 9. year series and the impact making such a huge show had on her life.
Presented and produced by Ashley Byrne. Research by Andrew Edwards
Continuity: Andy Hoyle and Jonathan Kydd.
A Made in Manchester Production.
