Forgotten Children's Television Programmes

Yeah! Someone else remembers it!

Found a few clips online though recently - not quite as great as I remembered, but give me that over any of today's stuff anyday!

Dr Snuggles anyone?

And of course, Dogtanian and Willy Fog.

Mary, Mungo & Midge and who remembers

Freewheelers, The Flaxton Boys and Brights Boffins.

Playbox. First time I saw a Central "Production for ITV" slide, IIRC!

Playbox was so cool, I had a video of it when a kid goes on a bus for the first time!

My favourite felines were Mooncat on " Get Up and Go! " and then " Mooncat and Co ". The first had Beryl Reid as one of the two presenters - the other was a guy called Steven who stayed on to the second programme two.

Another favourite was " Teatime and Claudia " about the cat and dog.

" Topper's Tales " is a distant and fading memory - anyone got any info about this?

Wizzy Wig (little alien creature lived in this boy's pocket)

Allsorts (late Gigglish Allsorts with Bonzo, Jiffy and the woman later played by Emmerdale's Jane Cox)

Brill ( think it was a science programme on CiTV with Richard Orford).

Allsorts had Wayne Jackman as one of the characters, who was on Play School from the 1983 revamp, and now writes for Balamory / Me Too!

Mike & Angelo
Ren & Stimpy (Though not necessarily for Kids.)
Aquilla
It'll Never Work
Spider
Playbus/Playdays

That's what I used to grow up with.

Mike and Angelo - that was just brilliant! Especially Angelo walking on the ceiling in the titles.
