Jan at Blue Fox was an early light entertainment show created by the BBC in 1952, and in total it lasted for four episodes; little else is known about this early show.

The show may have been derived from "Jan at the Blue Fox" by Ronald Duncan, described by the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature as one of a series of "articles and stories on country themes rptd [reported] from the Evening Standard."[1]

No footage remains of this programme, as all of the episodes were aired live and never recorded for posterity. The only existing visual record today of this show consists of still photographs.
