Children's Television Programmes That An Adult Might Watch.

[sandyRoe]

Blue Peter, Magpie, and The Magic Roundabout, are ones I'd sometimes watch.

Are there any others you liked ?

Scooby Doo

[Hopkirk]

Anything with my hero Brian Cant.

[Canary42]

Just remembered another favourite - Four Feather Falls, with the sheriff (Tex Tucker?) whose guns would swivel and fire themselves without leaving the holster.

Take Hart

[Surreyman]

Tiswas  (not quite sure if that qualifies as a kids programme)

[Canary42]

Another I can half remember the intro song, but not the programme. I suppose I could Google it, but I'll float it here instead - try to answer without Google, Wiki etc.

He's something and faithful right up to the end, That wonderful  something four legged friend.

I think it was a horse, but not Mr Ed.

Muffin the Mule - Sunday teatime in the 50s when tv was very new. I think the presenter Annette Mills was the sister of John Mills.

[Canary42]

Tiswas was for lecherous old men (Sally James) 😁  😁  😁  😁  😁  😁

^^^^^^

Fair point, well made Canary

[sandyRoe]

Canary42

Was that Champion the Wonder Horse?

[bhg481]

No, it was a record released by Roy Rodgers.

[Canary42]

Yes, Sandy, I think you may be right. Thanks.

[Canary42]

Oh !

Follyfoot

[Canary42]

bluey.  It is the BEST TV program EVER

[bhg481]

A wag in our group claimed the words were "A four-legged friend, he'll never let you down, 'til his legs break"

Funny what you remember from 70 years ago.

[pastafreak]

I've not seen it in ages...Sesame Street. Apparently its still running...since 1969.

But I certainly started watching it well before I even thought about children. I remember my roommate and I watching it before heading off to work.

[sandyRoe]

Then there was Skippy the bush Kangaroo.

"What's that, Skippy, the flying doctors fallen down a dry well and broken his leg?  Lead the way."

I never liked that.

a little off topic maybe, but since the magic roundabout has been mentioned several times, how many are old enough to remember the theme tune sounding like this?
