[dot.hawkes]

Peyton Place when i was 13 it was on at 4.20 in the afternoon. Ryan O'Neal was in it and then Don Quine joined playing Joe Chernak, fabulous it was.

[tonymclark]

Yep Grange Hill as well 'ere, I was fascinated with the Clare (Claire?) and Scotty romance, gawd knows why though!

Also adored Take Hart.

[BagPussAA]

For me it would have to be 'Battle of the Planets' or 'Grange Hill'..

[glammapus]

Poddington Peas for me. The theme tune was the best.
Also i used to think simon and the witch was cool, whether it actually was is a different matter.

[loopyc]

i also loved rentaghost with mrs popoff or audrey as she is now known!!

[China Doll]

I loved cartoons.... actually who am I kidding, I still love cartoons!

So basically, He-man, She-ra, Thunder Cats, Loony Tunes, City of Gold, Dungeons and Dragons, Poddington Peas (don't ask), The Wuzzles... God knows what else. Basically if it was animated and there were some fancy weapons, magic powers or just a few cute creatures I was there.

Anything on after after and including newsround did not get watched as was classed as too serious and I'd usually be playing outside at this point.

Poddington Peas, Penny Crayon, Grange Hill ( specially the Rolaaaaaaaaaand era)

[rom]

byker grove !
i loved it !!

[fayelc123]

I loved Grange Hill too, & Byker Grove.
I also remember watching Fun House a lot!

[Mattk]

battle of the planets is the one i remember most waiting in between episodes.tried watching it on bravo a year or so ago...it hasnt aged well !

[St Germain]

I am also of the Zammo, Roland, Grippa era. However, the programme I enjoyed most was Dungeons & Dragons. Someone posted a thread on here not so long about the last episode which was never made but the script is in existence. I actually read the whole thing, sad, lonely b@$tard that I am. Captivating stuff.

[Captain Swab]

I remember legging it back to watch T.M.N.Turtles (first time round) and my other fave was Maid Marion and her merry men, brilliant tv.

[Captain Swab]

O yeah and Knightmare was always a must see.

[BobTodd]

CRACKERJACK! ( Louds of Boyscouts in the Audience shout back CRACKERJACK) Only young enough ;o) to remember it with Stu Francis, The Great Soprendo and The Krankies on it.

If i remember one of the main reasons i watched it because the 2 Women on Take a Letter were kinda hot. Whatever happened to Stu Francis?

[lynbrown]

In the 50s, Ivanhoe, Robin Hood, Casey Jones.

[China Doll]

Oh yeah Captain Swab... how could I forget either of those answers!
