"The Equaliser
Blake's 7
Tales of the unexpected.
Budgie"
They still show tales of the unexpected.
Do you mean budgie the little helicopter? Lol.
No program's I miss really, just think a lot of this tripe should be kicked off the tv and make some proper films/comedies, etc. |

That's what made me think of helping others
Did you?"
I always do when I can. Despite the remarks I get. I should have said though. That was the program that made me think of the other thread. What kind of undead would you be". |

It was the same programme but the word ninja was deemed to violent for gentle British children lol.
On a similar note, the American "Top Cat" was called "Boss Cat" in the UK to prevent a clash with a brand of cat food, even though the other characters always called him "TC"! |

I thought that until a few years back. They showed a program that was made around that time and it was called Ninja Turtles. Yet you could tell they had different makers because the artist and voices were different. Maybe the British made their own version and called it "Hero turtles" for that very reason.

Mongrels. An original and funny show Cancelled because the BBC couldn't afford to make it for it's audience share. They kept "Table Dancer Diaries" though. |

Quantum leap is one of those series that could have gone on forever if the writers felt like caring it on. Shame it stopped though. |

Fantastic series, brilliant concept, superbly acted and the final episode makes me well up each time i see it.
There was talk of a next generation type series in the pipeline set 10 years on. The pilot script is online somewhere. |

Yep. I did get rather emotional at the end. Bit of trivia: Scott Bakula plays Jake Gyllenhall's character's father in the time looping film Source Code Nice QL reference there |
