Wait till your father Gets Home had a great themetune, just can't remember it! Was a cartoon family......I loved finding out Play Away was on on a Saturday afternoon, so I didn't have to suffer watching the wrestling with my dad and brother.......Michael Bentine's Potty Time, Why Don't You, HOW, and in my later years, Razzamatazz. My mum hated me watching ITV for some reason, so sneaking a watch was always a bit of a treat!

[Spikey88]

My fav when I was tiny was Tinga & Tucka ...2 Koala bears (puppets) with a presenter called Auntie Jean.I think they lived on the wibbly wobbly way & had a friend called Willie Wombat.I never once thought it was strange that an australian marsupial had a north england accent...but I was prolly only about 4 ...awwwwwwwww.There also used to be a prog called Time Slip when I was older that I was hooked on.Ahhhh thoses were the days!

[lankeela]

Roadrunner - Neep Neep!

Definitely not Blue Peter (I dont think anyone ever watches it anyway)

but Crackerjack (Crackerjack! I hear you all shout) - the sketch bit at the end with Peter somebody. And the cabbages.

Rag Tag and Bobtail (or was that Tales of the Riverbank?)

[lankeela]

Time Slip - wasnt that the one with the serious looking boy with big black glasses?

Also

Lost in Space

with the nasty one who had been taken into space by mistake and was always trying to get back to earth.

[Spikey88]

I seem to think there was a serious looking boy with glasses <g> I think the first series of Time Slip was based at a derelict air base & the kids found a gap in the wire & went back in time to WW2 .Lol I lived very near to a derelict airbase too (that apparently Odette etc...flew from )...so spent many hours there looking for a gap in time <sigh>...oh to be so naive now!
