Jamie! Jamie! Jamie and his Magic Torch! Down the helter skelter, faster and faster into Cuckoo Land!

OK maybe part of that song was made up, I can't remember it now. Bagpuss ruled.

My first crush, when I was about 6, was on Jayce, from Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors, lol. Does that make me weird?

Also, Dogtanian and the 3 Muskerhounds!

OMG Kermy, I loved every single one of those shows you just mentioned. We must be the same age!

Hehe Vik

I loved Worzel, I even wrote to Jim'll Fix It asking to meet him, never got a reply though Sgt Beetroot used to scare me, lol and at the end of the programme we used to guess which way Worzel was going to fall
