Into the Labyrinth is a British children's television series.[1][2][3] It was produced by HTV for the ITV network between 1980 and 1982, with the first series being broadcast in May 1981. Three seasons, each consisting of seven 25-minute episodes, were produced by Peter Graham Scott, who also directed all but two episodes, both in the final season.[4] The series was created by Scott along with Bob Baker, who had previously written several stories for Doctor Who.

The first series only was later shown in the United States as part of "The Third Eye" science fiction series on Nickelodeon. It was also broadcast on ABC TV in Australia, TVE in Spain, RTÉ One and RTÉ Two as part of The Den in Ireland, ETB 1 and ETB 2 in Basque Country, Arutz HaYeladim in Israel, TV2 in Malaysia and both RTV and ATV in Hong Kong.
