I agree with lots here. Alias Smith and Jones was a favourite. The Tomorrow People, The Waltons, The Baron, Randall and Hopkirk deceased. I'm sure I'll think of others.

Alias Smith and Jones. I came across some episodes on YouTube recently which were as bad as you would expect but me and my friends loved it at 9 years old!

I have a soft spot for the Waltons, it did try to tackle some difficult issues, especially relating to women.

The Walton was a classic
remember at the end
Goodnight grandma......

Can anyone remember a TV show from the 70s/80s that they couldn't wait to get home from school and watch?
Grange Hill springs to mind for me. I can still remember some characters, Mrs Mcluskey, Mr Bronson, Zammo Maguire, Tucker Jenkins.
