I know I will get lynched but watching the Sweeney and The Professionals now makes you realise that they've not aged well.

The professionals was gay man love and gurning, but the worst was starsky and hutch . I'm sure all the huffing and chuffing and rolling over cars was just foreplay for a big , cardigan clad cuddle and homeo erratic smoochles . not to mention the hard to spot car and stereotype black dude pimp .gold

I never quite got Mary Mungo and Midge but really liked it.
I remember a mouse standing on a dog's nose to gain access to the floor selection buttons in a lift. Or did I dream that?
EDIT - Harry - can't believe you've just called BB a ###t.

I reckon Chief Anderson out of Battle of the Planet's movember effort deserves a mention.

Pipkins anyone? It was some really manky puppet called Hartly Hare. Dreaaadful stuff looking back on it.
Saw Rhubarb and Custard on a DVD at my sisters house and boy was that a freaky show. Still quite enjoyed it though.

Even at the time and as a small child I knew that Seaside Special was drivel.

Good Lord - I used to really, really fancy Cathy from Grange Hill.
Would've loved a threesome with her and Trisha Yates but wasn't aware of such possibilies aged 11.

I used to adore Pipkins when I was very young. Barely remember it now. Topov the monkey, Humphrey Cushion and all that.

!I once at Glastonbury got wasted with SS regular Bobby Crush's nephew who was a friend of a friend. Sadly killed in a RTA shortly after.

Anyone remember a kids program about some kind of elves/sandman type things at the bottom of the graden, would have been early 90's. Theme tune gave me nightmares!
And no, not the sandman/'IT', probably later than that.

Holy hell, that's a blast from the past. I think I'd either eradicated that show from my memory or merged it with Pipkins.
Good grief.

Most of this was better than what came before; it was a good day when they killed off Muffin the Mule.

If the bloke who did the voice for Zoltar (US version) was still alive today he would be 105!
How old does that make you feel?
Both Mark from BOTP and Shaggy (Scooby-Doo) were voiced by the same guy. Zoinks!

Battle of the Planets is brilliant - I bought the DVD of that too and my son loves it even though he's too young to really understand it... I loved it so much when I was a kid that hearing the theme music now still sends a shiver of excitement down my spine

The Greatest American Hero.
I can't do it right now, but you simply MUST youtube it and watch the opening credits/listen to the theme song.
It is utterly painful, but a necessary cultural experience.
