Yeah I remember lots of the old children's programmes you mention here. You can actually find some of them on youtube if you are sad enough to look! I used to like the Clangers myself and Crackerjack.
Did any of you watch 'Carrie's War' on TV? That was one of my favourites.

[Claire]

this just posted twice so I'll edit it. Wonder if this will work? I think I mite show some of these old favourites to my kids. they will find them very amusing I'm sure. Add to the list Magic Roundabout and Andy Pandy!

Fell of my chair! Yep that's the one she'll mean Christine

I still watch the Champions, or do while I'm here.

The Professionals, The Sweeney, Starsk and Hutch, Cagney and Lacey - proper cop programs No political correctness in sight.

So true, not so dark and brooding either, actual entertainment for entertainment value, Zcars, No Hiding Place 2 more old favs, we were meant to be in bed as littluns when half of these shows were on but we would sneak down the stairs and watch the telly through the crack in the door, sat quietly on the bottom 2 steps
