I sat and watched the birds with my mum, absolutely terrified of birds for years after.
The fa cup final day was always fantastic with programs running all day like swap shop etc.
Christ, crown court and crossroads brings back fond childhood memories of sitting down with my mum other things we watched together was the wrestling. |

The cartoons...The Whacky Races, Hong Kong Phoey, Top Cat, Tom and Jerry, etc.
Plus 'World of Sport' with Dickie Davies, when they used to put the rallycross on (which was rare).
The Golden Shot with Bob Monkhouse was good too.
The Dukes of Hazzard
The Fall Guy
Rugby internationals with Bill McLaren commentating
Formula 1 races with Murray Walked commentating
Rent-a-Ghost
Tomorrow's World
Minder
The Sweeney...AWESOME!!!
Captain Pugwash, with its risqué characters...Seaman Staines, and Master Bates, lol. I bet its creator was laughing their cock off every time that was aired (just before the six o'clock news if I remember rightly). |

"They were lovely. Harry H.Corbett was the puppeteer if memory serves."
Your memory has let you down ....Harry H Corbett was the son in Steptoe and Son. Whereas Harry Corbett (no H) was the puppeteer who regularly had his hand up Sue's arse. |

Fortunately those Pugwash names are an urban myth made up by a newspaper which quickly spread and taken as truth. The creator of Pugwash successfully sued the defaming paper. |

Still designed for 1950s children sitting still in their blazers and cravats or child-twinsets, no doubt. That said I'd love to see jackanory handle transformers - 'this, children, is optimus prime. He looks very cross.'... |
