I had totally forgotten about chocky, I can barely remember it but it did weird me out. Also Noah's castle is strangely reflective of today

what is it with david jason and three wheeled cars ?

the indoor league the show that bought you willie thorne with a giant head of hair !!!

I enjoyed the gaffer

I came across Peter Blake one day at my school back in the mid 1980s. I was late for my next class. As i made my way down the corridor i took a short cut through a open area that was used as a cloak room. Peter was there chatting and smiling with the headmaster and another teacher. I instantly recognised him as being Kirk from Dear John. My wow moment however, was cut short by the headmaster turning his head to look at me. I turned around and fled lol The secondary school was and still is in Mansfield Woodhouse, notts

The problem with ITV is, they never show these again because they never stop showing Midsomer Murders back-to-back and the same with Father Brown.

I remember 'em all. The Gaffer was actually quite good!

I did love the running gag across several episodes in Dick Spanner when a woman's voice would say "Bizarre" out of nowhere. Dick would acknowledge it with a "Who said that?" and in a later episode "Who keeps saying that?".

Anyone remember Cabana Bars?

Chucky never leafy me traumatised.

I think there's more to the story of Brannigans crisps being discontinued than KP are letting on. I've seen countless people saying that they were annoyed that they're no longer for sale, so it can't be simply that they were dropped due to a "fall in demand". My guess is that they were slowly killed off, and the fact that towards the end they were only available in certain shops is kind of proof of that. And I think the main reason is that the flavours were meat-based only, and KP probably wanted to avoid being labelled as not being vegan friendly.

My favourite thing as a kid was the cabana bars, coconut and cherry. Much nicer than bounty bars. I absolutley loved them and miss them like crazy to this day. It absolutely kills me that I will never have one ever again..well probably not.

loved Chocky

I wonder what happened to Mind Your Language, Seaview, The Boy Who Won The Pools, Skipper's Day and Bottle Boys

Loved The Gaffer. He was great as Selwyn Froggat or should I say Magic😂

Dick Spanner was great. It evolved from an 80s commercial for Tennent’s Pils, loosely based around the Bonzo Dog Doo/Dah Band’s Chandleresque track ‘Big Shot’. The main character was Lou Tennent and was voiced by The Bonzo’s front-man Vivian Stanshall and was made by Anderson/Burr. The commercial went well enough for them to modify the character, change his name and make a series of shorts. I have vague memories of The Gaffer as a kid. It may be my memory playing tricks but I recall his car being driven down some steps. Chucky frightened the hell out of me as a kid so I stopped watching it!

I'm surprised you didnt mention Moonfleet

I remember Jane (so see-more-able) as a 14 year old boy. Also The Gaffer and Return to Treasure Island. I've only read Chocky. I don't think I watched any of the others but the Bernard Cribbens one sounds similar enough to several other cosy village dramas that have blurred together in my mind that it's possible.

Zelda from terrorhawks terrified me. Still does 😒

12:05 Me and my brothers loved the famous five tv show, years later I had a dog very much the same as Jimmy in the show, he also spent his life playing with kids during our circus workshops, never trained to do so, he just joined in.

we used to watch Dick Spanner having returned home from gigs 😁👍

Really love your videos - brings back lots of memories and you obviously do your research and know what you’re talking about! Many thanks for bringing back many fond nostalgic memories.

Pacers reminded me of the smell of hospitals.

Chocky also aired on Spanish TV, and I remember thinking how weird British children's TV was.

‘Comic Strip Presents’ anyone?

Ref. Brian Blessed: I can thoroughly recommend his autobiography ‘Absolute Pandemonium’.

HHOMAS is on Talking Pictures TV every Friday at 9.10pm.

LOL, I got 4 right, do I win a prize?

DIck Spanner sounds like a porn version of a Gerry Anderson show.

I remembered all except Casanova 73, but that makes sense because my mother wasn't a fan of Leslie Phillips.

Up The Elephant And Round The Castle shouldn't just be forgotten - it was so bad it should be buried under several tons of reinforced concrete in case anyone stumbles across it accidentally.

As a kid in the 70’s who felt as if I were off school ill so much, daytime TV was boring. I couldn't understand Crown Court. The Goodies was the best TV show ever as a young kid, while The Sweeney theme tune always signalled bedtime.

Not quite 80's, but there was a pretty cool 90's kid's Sci-Fi show out of Australia that barely anyone I know remembers . . Children of the Dog Star.

You forgot what an odious and unfunny piece of shit Alexei Sayle was sometimes. Thank you for the reminder. I genuinely detest him.

the only ones i remember was the famous five, which considering my age is not surprising as i was not allowed to watch tv after the erly evening news. i also grew up in the southern tv area, where im sure i saw the repeats! i do remember potty time too! indoor leauge would be really handy to learn how to play old forgoten table games, like bar billiards, which i saw featured and have seen a table that no one knew how to play

There is one chocolate bar I’d like to see back,,,,,”if you catch my Drift.!”

I’ve never been a massive crips..But I’ll go for a bag of outer spacers.👍

I remember Brian Blessed as Long John Silver..If I remember Brain doing the T.V Times advert and being on the cover of T.V Times..

Noahs Castle was pretty hardcore..

I too thought #22 was TO THE MANOR BORN but there was a cpl I didn't kno but they are still showing the professionals on itv 4 teatimes my score 19 😊

A couple of other somewhat scary kids programs from yesteryear are The Owl Service and Escape Into Night.

I have a D*ck spanner. It's on the end of my right arm.😂😂😂😂

70's 80's and the 90's...... when pretty much everything was good! 2012 and onwards........ shite to be honest.

My dad always talks about a sweet when he was young that doesn't seem to exist in this realm. Yogolo?

What a great blast from the past! Pacers were my favourite

Forgot all about Dick Spanner until I heard the theme tune. Can't say I remember watching any of the others though.

I hardly remember most of the programmes maybe be only 3. The work you do to present this channel is absolutely brilliant. Keep up the great work stu 👏👏

There was a tv series in th 80s all i remember is the lads got prison time in the last episode i was around 10 i think when it aired.

Fantastic, thank you 😂 Return to Treasure Island was also published as a novel. Neither were less than excellent 👍
