Old TV programmes remembered

Houseful of brothers …so The Lone Ranger….Hopalong Cassidy…..Popeye…..but I do remember Andy Pandy and Four Feather Falls

I still have my Sarah & Hoppity book (Sarah & Hoppity find a cat). I also loved Watch with Mother, Rag,Tag & Bobtail, Woodentops, I did think Andy Pandy was freaky though

Heidi, Robin Hood, William Tell, Dr Who. Had lots of brothers too.
Noggin the Nog, Captain Pugwash. Happy days.

Andy pandy and looby Lou also the wooden tops!

I used to love Tales of the Riverbank and all the Watch with Mother programmes, especially Rag, Tag and Bobtail. Also anything by Oliver Postgate. 😎
The best programme from our children’s era was Postman Pat and from our grandson’s younger days, Hey Duggee. 👍😎

Tinker & Taylor with Alan Taylor ... Thunderbirds ... Hectors House ... Top Cat ... Daktari ... The Flinstones ... Stingray ... Joe90 ... Lost In Space ...

Knightmare!!

Oh The Munsters & The Beverley Hill Billies but maybe they were later years.

Bill and Ben, tales of the riverbank, Andy Pandy and my favourite the Wooden tops- just loved Spotty Dog! My Mum said my brother and I would cry at the end of Watch with Mother as we didn't want it to end!
When I was a bit older I loved Daktari, Skippy the Bush kangaroo, Top Cat, Tarzan, Robinson Crusoe (lovely theme tune), Time Slip, Doctor Who (was utterly terrified of the Cybermen), Belle and Sebastian, Animal Magic. A long list but we didn't really watch much TV as by thr time we had tea there was probably less than an hour of suitable TV programmes on. Didn't even see a colour TV till I was in my teens so my childhood programmes were inblack and white. We did go to the local cinema on a Saturday morning to watch Batman and cartoons. No adult accompanied us. Happy days.

I forgot Lost in Space and the Munsters. Wonder what children today would make of them???

We had:-

Andy Pandy, Muffin the Mule, Sooty and Sweep, Prudence Kitten, the Clangers, and Magic Roundabout.

I also loved things on the wireless such as Dan Dare and Radio Lixemburg.

Me too.. not heard of ones above

Children of Fire Mountain, The Flame Trees of Thika, Heidi, Box of Delights, The Moondial, Stig of the Dump, LW&W, Harold Lloyd, Dad’s Army, Laurel&Hardy, Supergran,
Fraggle Rock, He man & She-Ra, Flight of the Condor,
Metal Mickey, Pingu, then moved up to the A Team - they loved Mad Murdoch, essentially, the more anarchic the programme the better, which led them neatly into
The Muppet Show.
I’m feeling quite nostalgic now!

Ooh, the Double Deckers!
Get on board, get on board, got on board with the double deckers...

Goodness me! I'd forgotten about some of these.....Metal Mickey! Such fun.

Thanks for reminding me 🤗

On Saturday DH and I watched Dixon of Dock Green - now that was a blast from the past!!

Gosh Singing Ringing Tree, it really frightened me as a young child, much preferred The Woody Tops!

I think all of the puppets were unsettling in those times, but it's all we had to watch.

Mr Ben.
The man who went into a clothes shop, out the back of a wardrobe, (I think) and went off for faraway adventures, wearing his chosen outfit.

My DS loved Mr Ben.
And Bod
The girls liked Bagpuss

My era was Bill and Ben, Muffin the Mule and Andy Pandy

Then there was the Magic Roundabout 😁
Who knew!

I liked The Lone Ranger with Tonto
Hi Yo Silver away!
Probably non-pc now but I had a cowboy outfit and a gun with caps.

I liked the programme with the song... "On white horses, let me ride away... blah de something. When the day is done, we'll race beneath the sun!"

We saw those white horses when we went to Slovenia.

All these memories had me singing the theme tunes in my head. I remember most things up to 1976 when I left the country.

Does anyone remember "Compact"? A soap opera about the staff of a women's magazine. I think the chief editor was called Camilla.

Oh nostalgia! I’m of the Watch with Mother and Listen with Mother generation. The other early TV programmes I remember are Billy Bean and his Funny Machine (and Cuckoo), Prudence Kitten and Muffin the Mule. I also remember a cartoon with a cowboy called Hank, but can’t remember the name. Anyone know?

Oh your name has just reminded me of Ollie Beek (beak?)
An owl puppet.

Thats all I can remember, though.

The wooden tops with spotty dog, Bill and Ben with little Weeeeed. I also enjoyed Dr. who, Champion the Wonder Horse. Mr. Ed the talking horse. But I also was a bit of a bookworm…..
