 Stage and film musicals , however , continued to be influenced by the music hall idiom , including Oliver ! , Dr Dolittle and My Fair Lady . The BBC series The Good Old Days , which ran for thirty years , recreated the music hall for the modern audience , and the Paul Daniels Magic Show allowed several speciality acts a television presence from 1979 to 1994 . Aimed at a younger audience , but still owing a lot to the music hall heritage , was the late ' 70s series The Muppet Show .
