    My mum bought DD a Worzel Gummidge DVD...
    so sad that Charlotte Coleman left us so very young...(she was In Four Weddings too...) that was a brill series!
    And Banana Splits...
    and if ANYONE ELSE ASKS ME IF I REMEMBER TORCHY THE BATTERY BOY I SHALL GET VERY CROSS cos I don't ... but I can remember B&W TV and I used to hate the budget because they took kids TV off and there was no BBC2....
    I used to really like Tarot Ace of Wands and Timeslip (which was WAY ahead of its time because it featured global warming before it was called global warming) and Tomorrow People...
    and Mudbath yes I do - remember all them wot you posted!
    Mind you I remember shillings and I found half a crown once!
    Which, babies, was equal to thirty old pennies and we were on holiday so I had to share it with my sisters so we got ten pennies each to play on the machines...I expect I remember this so well because I would have been disgusted that I was expected to share what I had found...In modern money 12 and a half pence! (I bet I didn't argue!)

    I hated rhubarb and custard - OH loved it

    The other two yes I liked and what was that program with pink blobs which changed shap - was it the blobs? Mr Ben we watched alot in the summer on a free DVD. I liked the lunchtime shows too like pipins but not rainbow.
