It was written by ex monkee Mickey Dolenz & and starred Irene Handel.........

Sorry to be a pedant, but Dolenz was the producer - the writer was Colin Bostock-Smith (still working, and the creator of As Time Goes By). There were 39 episodes!

Deffo BETTER than Supergran!!

[Munchkin71]

His favourite sweets were Atomic Thunderbusters. Boogie, boogie, boogie!

munchkin71 - how do you remember such crap?  As well as being a little disturbed by your infinite knowledge of robot fave foods and tv, I am also slightly in awe - can you remember The Ghosts of Motley Hall, or is it just The Metal Micky Fan Club of which you are a member?! (I think Ghosts of Motley Hall starred Arthur English..?

[tigga]

[Pinkpebbles]
