time to get nostalgic !
Dance your cares away,
Worries for another day.
Let the music play,
Down at Fraggle Rock.
Work you cares away,
Dancing's for another day.
Let the Fraggles play,
We're Gobo, Mokey, Wembley, Boober, Red.
Woweeee!
"Ooooh a Fwaggle! Look Ma! I caught a Fwaggle"
Ma: "Ahhhhhhh!"
"Wahhhhhhhhhhh! Woopee!"

PS: No yellow card please!
{mumbles to himself about being so wrong about people and almost against his will pauses over keyboard before........}
Tiswas and OTT - Sally James......and buckets of fun
Battle of the Planets - "G Force ! "
Hong Kong Phooey - Did Rosemary ever really answer a call ?
Wacky Races - Was that our Bilko in the Sarges tank ?
Mr Benns single repeated storyline - how much mileage from one plot ?!
Bagpuss - songs and probably only banjo in kids tv - "We will fix it, we will mend it"
Dangermouse - more Bond than any actor to play him and the late Terry Scott
Will'o'the wisp - pure surreal Kenneth Williams genius totally wasted on kids
Count Duckula - gothic horror brought to vegetarian feathered friends
{pushes keyboard away}
Nope, I'm strong - I can break the power of Sappho's dare.

: I DID OFFER :P
No...must resist...this one will suck me in for ever...no..oh, God...I think I'm going...someone stop me
...ALEXANDRA why did you have to mention all those: virtually every one you mentioned has dragged back memories that I didn't even realise were memories. Forgive me folks if I ramble on for days..Alex you've hit enough nails on the head to give me metal fatigue..
Firstly, Avengers & Emma Peel: the reason for my life-long 'thing' about thigh length boots. I watched every episode-avidly. I still recall one called 'CastleDe'ath': some nonsense about secret submarines being based in a Scottish Loch and people being kept away by supposed spooky goings on. I still whistle the music-a haunting Pibroch lament, Amazing that after all those years I still remember it note for note and it gave me a life -long love of Pibroch, even though I'm as 'Sassenach' as John Bull's shitnicks.
Secondly, Jack Hargreaves &'Out of Town'. As a poor farm-labourer's son , growing up in the country, I rushed to my Granny's, every night it was on -(we didn't have a Telly and my Granny's little Bush(sic!!) was my conduit to the outside world). The theme tune-'memories of the Alhambra' still brings tears to my eyes-even in the guise of 'Merry Christmas Mr. lawrence'-and i hung on every word the old chap said about fishing, shooting, trees, birds and all the things that are the core of my very being. I cried my eyes out when he died. I was incandescent with rage last year when a tV sketch show took the piss out of him. To a small country kid, blistered hands and short trousers tied up with baler string-he was a hero(and still is). Sorry Town peeps if that sounds garbage-I wouldn't expect you to understand.
Thirdly-the'66 World Cup final, once again courtesy of the little Bush. I had to deliver meat for the butcher-yes, on the little bike with the small front wheel-before being allowed to watch. They think it's all over?-it never will be for me.
Fourthly-'Whiplash-with Chris Cob driving his stage 'across the Australian desert' Who remembers that?
My first TV memory-very vague-is of something (I Think) was called 'Land of the Giants'
Who mentioned 'Robinson Crusoe'? I remember fighting a boy till we dropped-we're coarse in the country-because he got me in trouble at school and we missed an episode. The theme music-I bought a modern version, will send details if anyone wants it-wonderful.
Cassius Clay(Mohammed Ali)-my all time sporting hero-I watched every fight. Never, ever, has a sportsman come anywhere near the charisma of this giant among men.
The England Rugby teams that spanned the decades-Mike Teague, Billy Beaumont, David Duckham, Rory!!, Peter Wheeler.. I never, ever missed a game-and still won't. Strangely, although English to my tonsils-and they're gone-my all time heroes were the 'Pontypool Front Row'-anybody know what the HELL I am on about?
As a young hooker I worshipped them.
oh the list is endless:
The prisoner
Monty Python- the 'zeitgeist' of my generation
Top of the Pops
Danger Man
Skippy-(what, trouble at the mine-shaft Skip?)
Scooby Doo
Bleep and Booster on Blue Peter...
Oh, someone else have a go, I'm getting Nostalgia Sickness

Does anyone remeber The Flashing Blade? Like Robinson Crusoe, this was an import, this time from France. It was set during the Huguenot wars in the C17. It was fantastic, how I'd love to see it again!
And the BBC's dramatisation of The Children of the New Forest - wonderful stuff for the romantic child I was. I've always loved the book too. A wonderful romance.
Sappho - still an unabashed romantic xxx

If you have the theme for Robinson Crusoe (yes it was me that mentioned it) then I'd love a copy!!!!!!
God - it just goes to show what a like minded lot we are when it comes to the small screen!
Hugs, Alex x x

OMG Top of the Pops!!!!
With Pan's People ( at school every week we used to try and copy the dances).
They used to have a prize for the best outfit and the best dancer on the program if I remember rightly.
Radio luxemburgh (crap spelling I know) - I just about remember that - the music used to fade in an out - but we loved it - and i was only little.
Breakfast show with Noel Edmonds ( remember his 'Silly Phone Calls'?) the forerunner of many a radio prog that the youth of today think is cool!.
DLT on a Sunday Morning! - Good on him when he resigned on air because of Radion 1 becoming so purile!!!!! And then it proceded to get even worse!!!!
Dear God I could go on and on and on and on (and she does ---- as many of you are saying!!!!!!!!)
How about 'The Virginian' with James Drury and music by Percy Faith!
:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
Sappho - I also remember and loved the flashing blade! Anything romantic and historical had me hooked (....still does but shhhh - don't tell anyone)
I can just about remember Ivanhoe too (with a very young Roger Moore)!!!!!!!!!! And I seem to remember Wagon Train - didn't that have a young Clint Eastwood in it or am I thinking of something else?
I was really little then - but brother and sister a little older so I sneaked down to watch stuff I wasn't supposed to - and I got told off for it too!
