There have been a number of very notable moments:
* An elephant defecating on camera and walking out of the studio, stepping on John Noakes' foot in the process.
* Richard Bacon's [[Role -Ending Misdemeanor|sacking for taking cocaine]], which resulted in a senior BBC official reading a live on-air apology and [[Serious Business|him being stripped of his Blue Peter badge]].
** A [[Christmas Episode]] [[Reunion Show]], about ten years later, casting various current and past presenters in a musical, featured an [[The Ghost|unseen]] villain named "Richard". Following his defeat the male lead said to the camera "I've cooked ''his'' bacon.".
* Vandals breaking into the Blue Peter Garden and wrecking it, which was treated on-air by the hosts with all the gravitas of a ''murder''. (An American equivalent would be slashing Mr. Roger's tyres. You just don't ''do'' it.) {{spoiler|The series [[Ashes to Ashes]], about a cop who wakes up in the 1980's, features a [[Historical In-Joke]] where Gene Hunt turns out to be the vandal, destroying it while apprehending a suspect.}}
