Just finished watching Roary the racing car with my 2 young sons(8+4)& it set me thinking about childhood memories from when i was around their age(in the late 70s/early 80s)& what programmes i used to enjoy at the time.

Came up with this little lot....

Jamie & the magic torch
Metal Mickey
Monkey
Chorlton & the wheelies
Worzel Gummidge

What were your childhood faves??

I remebember a few......

Scooby Doo
Thundercats
Flintstones
Dangermouse
Transformers (anyone remember the 80's moive)
Denver the last dinsor
Semestreet (oscar and bidbird)
Mupets
Fraggle rock (down at fraggle rock......) (When I was an outdoor ed instructor I convienced the kids, that we had fraggles living in the cave system

)

I also liked

Airworlf
Streethawk
A-team
Battlestar Glatica

During the 80's one of the buisness myt family owned was a video store, so I could watch any cartoon, U moive or PG moive I wanted for free.

For someone reason I was never allowed to watch Germilns, rambo ect, the behind counter moives were really adults only

For me the 80's was ace, we had a big ass house, had great parties and watched any cartoon I wanted, was great fun.
