Geordie racer, Jossy’s giants and something about a folly - at the time I had no idea what a folly was. These are the ones that stick in mind for the reason that I think we all watched them during primary school - possibly even during classes I’m not sure.

I can remember enjoying Sesame Street right up until I was like 14 or something.

I wasn’t allowed to watch Power Rangers.

The episode when the teenagers are graffiting an old sea turtle and Arnold gets upset and frees it from the aquarium :sob:

Or when he finds out Oskar can’t read and he teaches him or when the stoop kid bully is too afraid to leave his stoop and Arnold helps him and he becomes nice

It was so far ahead of its time

I have taken selfies outside Mr Benn’s house (it’s in Putney).

I just found CBBC programmes were much better. Knightmare and Behind the Bike Sheds are practically the only CITV programmes I remember watching. Didn’t like anything Cosgrove-Hall did.

Used to be a massive clash between me and my younger brother over the TV. He wanted to watch He-Man on ITV and I wanted to watch Fonz and the Happy Days Gang on BBC1. Question of who got home from school first, really. Anyway, I know which of those two TV shows has stood the test of time…

…and one of the reasons I hated Cosgrove-Hall was because they made this horrible teapot witch who scared me out of my wits…

Can’t believe so many of you pencil necks didn’t like He-Man.

You guys are morally bankrupt.

#125

He-Man had nothing on this:

#126

Yeah He-Man wasn’t a 30 year old man trying to score High School chicks.

To be fair, Henry Winkler was 35 by this point.

Geordie Racer was definitely part of the schools TV stuff. Think we also had quite a bit of Ghost Writer at school as well.

#129

Just like the film

I loved Geordie Racer! I seem to remember our teacher bringing in a load of stotties to try and teach us about Geordie culture. We also had the blocky BBC-micro computer game

I think you might be right

Yeah, he was Barrington the Rastafarian merry man. Totally forgot he was in it!
