The Carlton title music was a lot better. The actual episode chosen from the era was a rather poor choice though; Angelo didn't use his alien powers once!

Here is a list aswell, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programmes_broadcast_by_CITV

Does not look there was much crap,

Obviously it's subjective, and that's probably not a complete list but there will be some rubbish in there just by the law of averages.

Was referring more to the chances of them appearing in the Old Skool Weekend - Chums re-edits from 2001-ish would have been much more likely than full episodes of SM:TV

There's very little point in repeating whole episodes of a live magazine programme like that. Highlights compilations are really the most you can expect - like Chums and the Dick and Dom rehashes

Why did there show Huxley Pig, It does not seem much fanfair around this show? I get the feeling this is where Zzzap should have been slotted in.

Here are two things that I learnt over the weekend.

The 'Mike' in the Sunday episode of Mike and Angelo was called Mike[y] Mason.

The hospital in Children's Ward was called South Park Hospital

It's one of my earliest television memories so I was happy for its appearance Smile

I think for me the most notable absenses were Zzzap! (I know, rights issues), Tots TV (last seen on Cbeebies) and The Dreamstone - otherwise it felt like almost every single CITV show I remember was there, particularly from my 'golden age' of around 1993 to 1995 (I was more CBBC after that). Obviously that's discounting all the American imports which weren't technically CITV productions - ironically, despite so many classic UK kids TV shows made during then, I think the most popular show during that time was Tiny Toon Adventures!

Copyright belongs to the respective broadcasters.

The aspect ratio went out in 16:9 for the first few secs then 4:3 so its ended up 16:9 Crying or Very sad

That's not the Dramarama sting I was expecting:

When did Dramarama run from & until?
Was the idea as seen with Children's Ward giving the chance for young writers, directors & producers to create a unique pilot for the chance of it being commissioned as a series?

The Wikipedia page gives a good summary of what it was all about. It was also notable for one of David Tennant's first TV appearances.

Which can be viewed on STV youtube player.


It does seem TVS created the most, around 20, which are lost forever.
