The Tripods was ace.

I suspect a rerun would be awful.

That's me off to YouTube

Just a few seconds in, future, no technology, massive tripod scooping up a baldy young fella into its belly.

I stand corrected.

Pogles Wood

But it's OK, we got the video 🙂

EDIT - and Garth Marenghi's Darkplace - I only found it towards the end of the series and wanted more.

Twin Peaks

I watched it on BBC 2 the first time round but can't remember it being repeated. It may have been but given its popularity and cult status, its pretty low key

+ another for Tripods. Didnt one of the young actors die, stopping them from making another series?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tripods_%28TV_series%29

suggests I might be confused, but still not sure.

Nobody I know (of my age) remembers a show about someone who built a rocket in a scrapyard and thinks I am tripping, thanks Wikipedia for retaining my sanity.

Fingermouse.

Fingerbobs (Fingermouse was just one of the characters) 🙂

Edit: Just googled it and apparently there was a spinoff series called Fingermouse :mrgreen:

Two that really stand out for me would be:

The Changes - One from my childhood and each episode was eagerly anticipated. Very dark for the time and target audience.

Neverwhere - Neil Gaiman's excellent book made into a BBC serial. Obviously done on the cheap but fantastic nonetheless. Managed to get the DVD on import but never seen it repeated on terrestrial.

Shame, both were brilliant.

One Summer was brilliant! I tried to get it on DVD. Apparently it's never been released 🙁

I heard somewhere that Tutti Frutti was going to be repeated, but that was a few years ago, so I guess it's still being sorted out.

Didn't the Tripods finish part way thru I seem to remember at the time that I'd read all three books but it finished after the second book?

Joe 90 I received the DVD box set of all the episodes one Xmas as a present 🙂

The Fast Show. Almost certainly has been repeated, but not as much as you might expect given how popular it was.

Maid Marian and her Merry Men. Mainly due to fond memories of having a massive teenage crush on Kate Lonergan.... 😉

Automan. Had a green cursor that buzzed around and made his car/bike/boat.

Manimal! Where he could turn into any animal, mental stuff.

Edit: beaten to it.
