    Well according to this it was first shown in 1961 but that's not much help cos its not one of their options.

    Edit: 1659 beat me to it with a much better answer! Thanks 1659.
    MASSIVE THANKS TO ALL POSTERS!:happyhear

    [STRIKE]I'd go for 1990's as per this: CLICKY
    Source is IMDB but Wiki also agrees it's 1991, however RIN tin tin was in 1920's, which was about a dog.[/STRIKE]

    Under HERGE you get a reference to a [strike]TV series in the 1960's ? Nothing in the 50's and the 20's is definitely out![/strike]
    Note to self: Stupid boy look further down the IMDB page?
    Thanks Em
    :jGood luck ALL compers and Thanks to all posters:T

    Sorry to contraddict you. I used to watch it when i was little (and I was born in 75) therefore it was definitely on TV before the 90s

    OK the FIRST reference to a TV show is:
    1. Geheimzinnige ster, De (1959) (TV) (comics)
      ... aka Étoile myst!rieuse, L' (Belgium: French title)
      ... aka The Shooting Star (UK)
      ... aka The Star of Mystery (USA: dubbed version)
    So are we agreed on the 50's?
