	Magic Roundabout (Hemel Hempstead) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Magic Roundabout in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, England is the familiar name given to a complex road junction also known as the Moor End or Plough roundabout.
		It was constructed in 1973 to reduce the congestion at the original standard layout roundabout where seven roads intersected, it was one of the first bi-directional roundabouts to be constructed in the UK.
		The roundabout is widely believed to be the only roundabout with a surface river running through it, however, this is not the case.

	The Magic Roundabout
		The Magic Roundabout was created by Serge Danot in 1965 and was entitled 'Le Manege Enchante', but the stories transmitted by the BBC were completely rewritten by Eric Thompson (father of Emma).
		Perhaps the smallest, cheapest and most fun Magic Roundabout items to collect are the sets of plastic figures that were given away free with Kellogg's cereal in the late 1960s and early 70s, and with Nabisco biscuits in the mid-70s.
		Magic Roundabout party tableware by Sweetheart was also available, but as these items were generally spoiled after a few uses, they have tended not to last in great numbers today.

		They called it a multi-mini roundabout, but as far as Swindon folk was concerned, they now had their very own Magic Roundabout.
		And magic it certainly is. Though it may confuse or amuse new visitors and baffle American tourists, the average Swindonian finds that his or her passage through one of the town's busiest junctions is actually quite fluid, even at peak times.

		Whatever your behaviour when you drive round a British roundabout, a group of roundabout enthusiasts have a name for you, culled from the characters of the classic Magic Roundabout TV series.
		A shabby roundabout is a poor reflection on local people and local pride, according to Clive.
		The society members take their roundabouts very seriously, but their thoughts have recently turned to other aspects of road safety, especially that of pedestrians.

	BBC - h2g2 - Plough Roundabout, Hemel Hempstead, England, UK - A381089
		The town of Hemel Hempstead, in Hertfordshire, England, is probably best known for the Plough Roundabout, or the 'Magic Roundabout' as it is fondly known by many of the locals.
		The 'Magic Roundabout' has also been described as a 'who dares wins' roundabout and as 'hilarious, totally aggressive and kick-arse'.
		But be warned; if you have never been to Hemel Hempstead before and have therefore never experienced the 'Magic Roundabout', it is suggested by some of those pesky local Hemel Hempstead jokers that you bring a spare pair of trousers with you for the journey.

	RTE.ie Entertainment - The Magic Roundabout (G)
		For those who don't remember, 'The Magic Roundabout' was a 1960s children's programme with a five-minute slot where an unusual array of characters did very little and hung about a roundabout that was allegedly magic.
		Hailing from France, the charm of the original lay in the fact that not much happened in an almost existential way, and this nothingness only had to be sustained for five minutes.
		The 2005 Magic Roundabout is unlikely to gain a new audience or offer anything new to its original fans.

		The roundabout eventually opened in 1956, but it was much different from the busy Magic Roundabout of today which is known throughout the world.
		It was the first such roundabout to be opened anywhere and it quickly settled down to ease the townâs traffic problems.
		Such was the feeling for the roundabout and its success that in the 1990s when some traffic experts suggested that traffic lights should replace it a Save Our Roundabout campaign (masterminded by The Gazette) was launched with stickers and a mass petition.

		On a simple roundabout weight of traffic on a busy route can keep traffic from a less busy route joining the roundabout.
		- The basic idea of the Hemel roundabout is to ignore the central roundabout and treat each mini-roundabout around its periphery as a singular entity.
		In fact, the biggest issue with Hemel's Magic Roundabout would be the cars coming down Midland Hill and making a u-turn around a single mini-roundabout, as this catches out the unwary looking for a gap to their right.
