It was all about Knightmare - the program I'd actually run home for, making it one of the very few things to make me adjust my speed to above a saunter.

Sidestep left... left... pick up the apple... PUT IT IN YOUR KNAPSACK! KNAPSACK! FASTER! FASTER!

...aaaand, death.

Ed auditioned to be on that but unfortunately they were picked as understudies and the main team were OK to go on. Booo sad.gif

I saw a Transformer's poster in my local cinema the other day and thought that was a blast from the past.

Also, does anyone remember The Children of Green Knowe?!? unsure.gif

Zorro was another of my childhood favourites and Black Beauty smile.gif Scooby Doo (without the annoying Scrappy), Grange Hill (back when it was based in Laarrnddon where it should be!), Blue Peter, The Clangers, Ulysses, Jason and the Argonauts, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, She-Ra, Moomins.

What was that programme called Moon something and it had a spooky lighthouse keeper ghost in it?!? unsure.gif

Bets thing about Grange Hill was the original intro (and the music for it). It wasn't the same after they got rid of that comic-style opener. The series was the poorer for the loss of 'the presentation of the sausage'.

And i echo the disbelief that it has been shifted away from Laaaaaaaaahhndaaaaaahhhnn. Wasn't it originally pitched as EastEnders for kids? There were some crossovers, weren't there?
