When my sons were small, they used to love watching cartoons on Grandma's television.

Their favourites and mine were Krtek the Mole and the animations Camberwick Green, Chigley and Trumpton.

Who can forget Pugh, Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble, Grubb?

Then came The Herbs (with dear old Parsley the Lion)
and The Magic Roundabout (originally Le Manège enchanté).

But best of all there was Morph who was adopted in 2016 by Aardman for a whole new series.

What are or were your favourites?

Bill and Ben, I used to be really worried when the gardener was coming down the path.
When my youngest was little, Pingu was all the rage, love Pingu, so naughty.

I really loved "Listen with Mother" on the radio. They sang so beautifully.

Will O The Wisp. Mavis Cruet and Evil Edna were wonderful!

Anyone remember The Bumblies?
1950s TV programme, devised by Michael Bentine. Seem to remember that it didn't last long....but I loved it grin

Can also remember a sweet Pirate one when DD was young.....all they ever said was 'Ahoy' no matter what they were up to...it was very gentle and made us all smile.

DD loved Dungeons and Dragons. We used to go out for a walk and have to run home so we wouldn’t be caught by Venger. She was also a great fan of Dogtanian and the Three Muskahounds and good old Postman Pat.
