Can anyone think of any cartoons that's no-one's heard of? (even Google!). I think I found one. French Cartoon Natalie (re-dubbed in english and shown on S4C and C4 with voices done by former Dr Who companion Wendy Padbury & Rob Brydon).
(watch from 7.38 onwards)

Telebugs. Pretty much nobody old enough remembers it. In fact, it's only been fairly recently that information about this show has appeared on the internet. You get the same comments over and over - "I thought I was the only one who remembers this" and "I thought I dreamt this" etc.

I absolutely loved that show as a kid. I made the mistake of rewatching it as an adult.

Not obscure but noticed C5 showed Looney Toons in primetime on Monday - must be the first time a cartoon has been used as filler on one of the main channels in quite some time.

A Wikipedia article has existed on it since 2006.

shown on Watch It/Children's ITV just after the pre-school programme and the main 425 cartoon! I remember it very well and even have a video of it somewhere back in UK!

It seems that channel 5 now have the rights to the Looney toons. As they normally shown on Saturday and Sunday after Batman animated series.

Not a cartoon series, but one of those 5-minute filler short animations - a German cartoon titled (translated as) 'The Story of a Hen', a lovely little animation shown on BBC 2 in the 80s and probably from the decade before, but I've found nothing on the internet at all - and I searched both the English and German titles!

Fraochy Bay is brilliant (it's only on BBC Alba) in that its storyline always ends with an English punchline that owes much to the old radio series "My Word" when Muir & Norden had to improvise a daft story to get a corrupted version of some well known saying as the punchline.

Not a cartoon - an animation - but Faclan (same channel) is real student/cult viewing and I really want a DVD of the whole series!!!

One that sticks in my mind, but not many others is Baggy Pants and the Nitwits:
