Children's TV late 1950's early 1960's

[garybfsl]

I am trying to remember two children's TV program's from the late 1950's or early 1960's. Both may have originally started out as made in France.

Both in black and white - who had colour in those days!

The first is about I believe a young girl and boy on the French coast. They wandered in and out of wrecked ships!

The second is puppets dressed in 17th century dress with wigs. Music possible a hurdy gurdy? Could be called Monrovia but cannot find under that name.

Any help would be appreciated.

re your second gary
Maybe it's Tales of Rubovia you're thinking of?

Can't help with your first at the moment but I'll have a think!

Thank you Robinia, that's the one. Believe it or not I remember it as being quite scary!
