Childrens programme 70s/80s
4 Answers
Can anyone remember a childrens programme late 70s early 80s. the main characters were puppets , but there were two human adults as well. The female adults name in the show was Marjory Dawes. The puppets , were sort of troll like. The girl had long hair she kept in a pigtail and they both had little turned up noses.In some ways, to look at ,the girl reminded me of June Ackland from the Bill. Any suggestions??

Not Marjory Dawes but Marjorie Dawn...you're talking about The Riddlers which was first shown on ITV during early lunchtime programs for children in 1986. It was made by Yorkshire television and ran for over 10 years finally being stopped in 1996. It concerned the goings on in the magical garden of a cottage owned by miss Marjorie Dawn (played by Victoria Williams). The Riddlers (Mossop - older/wiser and Tiddler - young and inexperienced) live in a well in Marjorie's garden and appear to help both Marjorie and Mr. Grimley the chimney sweep (played by Peter Llewellyn Jones). The Riddlers have the ability to magically transport themselves to anywhere. Sometimes the Riddlers would transport Marjorie and Mr. Grimley with them. Tiddler was an inexperienced young female Riddler. She had to solve twelve Riddles (Aesop's Fables) in order for her to be upgraded to full Riddler status.
