PhilR Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) The 50's programmes as mentioned by Amateur then there was Twizzle and Torchy the battery boy springs to mind. Just William with Dennis Waterman in the lead role and Billy Bunter. Nearly forgot William Tell, there was a fit blonde bird in it Jennifer JonesJayne, I started young looking at the females in the programmes Then there was Murder Bag with Raymond Huntley as the CID Inspector and Dixon of Dock Green - Evenin' All. The first series of Quatermass, I remember being sent to bed and creeping down the stairs and peering through the banister rails into the living room but couldn't see much of it as the tv screen was small. The old man heard me and just got up and closed the living room door! Edited December 31, 2011 by PhilR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pushkin Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Four feather falls - a puppet western show and it was great. Paladin - his motto was "have gun will travel" I'll leave you all to look it up on google. Lancelot, Ivanhoe, Robin Hood, William Tell: A programme about american jet fighters that i can't recall the name of? Laramie, Bonanza, Bronco Lane, Rawhide, Wagon train, Tenderfoot or Sugarfoot; can't recall the right name. A programme that used to give a selection of fairy tales from Europe and it was a bit spooky and surrealist at the time. Calemero. Magic RB, Magpie, Blue Peter, How. Gideon's way, Z cars, Magrait the original version ---------blooming heck - now you really have got my brain going Pushkin B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88b Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Aparently my parents got a TV in 59 when I was 3 so I could watch Richard Green in Robin Hood. To be honest I thought by the title of the thread is was about the BBC Christmas line up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
