From memory, I loved Pippin and Tog as they were a bit off the wall....I remember watching Bleep and Booster as part of Blue Peter as well

Actually I think Pippin and Tog were in Pogles Wood ????

Bagpuss - unbeatable telly.

The Flumps weren't far behind either.

Fingerbobs.... or whatever it was called and The Flumps. I also used to like something with a big spider but I can't remember what that was called...

Edit: Itsy and Bitsy

Why Don't You, always wanted to be on it

The Flumps...how the mighty have fallen, one day TV stars, the next, marshmallow finger food for kiddies....

Thomas the Tank Engine

I was never obscure, but The Mysterious Cities of Gold was, kind of.

Tomorrow people (could do with one of them belts before i do transfers),
clangers,man from uncle,land of the giants,time & time tunnel.

Remember Bleep and Booster from the old Blue Peter annuals, but can't remember seeing them on the show. Were they made from old bog rolls, sticky backed plastic and double sided sticky tape??

Yep this was one of mine also. (I have been trying to remember the name of this for years!) If I can remember they never even found the City.

When I was really young I used to love Mary, Mungo and Midge... I used to go home for lunch and it was on before/after Rainbow... top show.

When I was a bit older I was a Grange Hill addict...

Wacky Races - class !

A 4 piece band (I think they were called Animal Crackers????).
I seem to remember there was a tiger, a dog, a monkey and something else.
I do remember they were called Bongo, Rory, Twang and Boots though!

still a hit with the nippers now - mad jnrs favourite. fimbles is the little lasses.

rentaghost for me (back in the 80's)

There was also an American show with 4 blokes dressed up as some kind of furry animals and they drove around in moon buggy type cars.... hilarious but I can't remember the name!!!

Banana Splits

Hong Kong Phooey fantastic television! The egg drop leg chop for two was an unbeatable move in any cartoon fight.

Rhubarb and custard

That's the one!!! Brilliant show.


I used to love The Monkies too.

ah yes, was thinking of that one as well - still on the box as well, saw it recently but can't recall which channel

Damn it. Found a picture of the animal kwackers but can't get it as my avatar as it's too many pixels?????? All too much for a dunce like me. Any advice?

Loads of these were great and favourites, especially Bagpuss.

I also used to love that programme with the flying carpet and mechanical gold eagle (i think), or was it a phoenix? Anyone else remember it? About 10 years ago they made a remake of it... real actors etc

quality it was, they could only fly 3 times a day or something like that..

This might be wrong but I believe you can out it in Paint and then go into Image, then Attributes, and you can change the size and pizels

yep, just save it as a .JPG and away you go...

Cheers gents

Only problem being I've cut up half the band!!!!

use the stretch/skew to resize it.

Mr Ben always used to be a favourite of mine.

Murf, you're a genius.
The band are back!

Uh oh....its Danger Island next !!

who remembers the dodgy saturday morning foreign classics....

Belle and Sebastian ?
The White Horses ?
The Flashing Blade ?


Bings back memories !!
