Went through Daktari, Flipper and Skippy for 17 before Mrs Eagle remembered 'Clancy' in Skippy, so guessing ...

17. Skippy the bush kangaroo

I remembered Hartley Hare had Mrs P the Penguin in it but could not remember the name of the programme so had to look it up. Someone else can try to remember the name for 18.

Top detective work by Mrs E - it's spot on!

Oooh you are close on 18....

Pipkin?

I'd have got 18 with the 'assist' of Hartley The Hare but I don't remember the 3 names listed (I googled so I won't give it away)

EDIT - 6/7 for unc!

I don't remember the 3 names listed either, but only have vague memories of the programme 'It's time.... for a story'. Only got it from Hartley, so can't claim it.

presume it's Pipkins then, not Pipkin, given the 6/7 comment?

Pipkins it is - is it possible to have more than one assist in this game?

Uncsi takes it with 2 x assists sort of.

She was also one of the 3 names in Question 4! to think she has gone from such glamorous heights to playing a great grandmother in a soap opera set too close to Old Trafford for her health......

I'm going to curse you all day long Knulpuk. I'm trying to concentrate on something when Mr Jumbo pops into my head closely followed by Big Ears :twisted:

- Who was Dinah?

20. Noddy

Only Doozy to pop up now as this is the only other name that rings bells for some reason - I have no idea of the rest - back to work now ...

Was number 12 that animated one called something like "Who's under the Trapdoor"?

Hogmeister · **Posted:** 29 Oct 2010, 16:10

A somewhat desperate guess - is number 22 Roland Rat?

Are we looking for a Scottish superhero? Is Mrs Finkerton his landlady? Could it be....

Sorry, no idea, if it isn't Russ Abbot in a ginger wig or Balamory.

Close enough.

Nigel1305 took a lot of early glory but some might say he picked off the easy ones.

For that reason the overall winner is Eagle224, with Nigel1305 a close runner up. Thanks for contributing.
