I'm a massive Twin Peaks fan, brilliant slice of the early 90's! Any other fans here?
hi everyone.:) ive been thinking lately with so many shows finishing the bill,grange hill etc what would you like to see being brought back. i don't mean showing repeats of the old classics as we see them regular. but bringing them back with a new cast etc. and wuld they be as good with a...
I'm old enough to remember the start of breakfast television in the UK. What was on before it? Did they show other programmes or did the telly just not start until later? Anyway I can just remember when TVAM first started. Before it came on there was a programme shown about recovering the Mary...
I've loved space TV series and films for as long as I can remember. My first memories are probably of Lost In Space and I used to dream of living in a spaceship like their "Jupiter 5". It was like a 1960's American house full of mod cons but designed as a flying saucer. Fantastic! Star Trek's...

Is it really the last ever episode tonight? I remember sitting as a family and watching the first one back in 1984. We watched it for a good many years on a Tuesday and Thursday evening. I have to be honest and admit I've not watched it for a good many years, but I did get a little pang of...
Comedy geniuses or irritating plonkers? I go with the latter mostly, though I did like their Ken and Eddie Kennedy in the dry cleaners. "We don't do duvets!"
Anyone remember The adventure game? Where they would go around collecting Drongas, and have to do puzzles, then try not to get caught in the Vortex. Can remember it BBC2 think it was on about 6pm. :cool:
Two serials I remember from when I was a kid. The first would have been late 1980s, sort of a kids detective / Famous Five kind of thing based in Greece (or a Greek island). I remember a plot about a long lost treasure? I remember it was on during the summer holidays. The second was...

Inspired by something Wil said on the lunchtime tv shows thread, what theme instantly transports you back in time? Mine is Paddington Bear, remember vividly watching it on an evening with my dad. As soon as I hear it, it's the mid 70's and it wont be long until bed :)
Tiswas and Swap Shop. I think we all probably remember Saturday Scene with a pre-Tiswas Sally James (oh boy, did I ever want to win that Martian Landau, Barbara Bain Space 1999 compo :) ) but what about before that and what about on the beeb? I have a vague memory of Ali Bongo introducing shows...
I just caught a program called The 100 Greatest Kids TV Shows they had "The Adventure Game" OMG I had forgotten it, i used to love it when i was a kid
Help us get the 80’s classic TV show Kick Start back on the air! Kick Start came up in one of our ‘nostalgia-trip’ discussions in the office and we thought it would be great to try and get this back on our screens. On the back of this we further researched the idea of ‘bringing back Kick Start’...
Most people remember the popular Saturday morning shows like Swapshop and Tiswas, but can anyone remember some of the more obscure ones? Those that spring to mind are the ones that ITV put on during the summer. 'Get Fresh', '8:15 from Manchester' and my all time favourite 'On the Waterfront'. There...
Who was your fav character?mine has to be Tucker(Todd Cartey) 488
Does anyone remember the childrens TV show thats opening theme tune contained the lyrics "King Canute sat on the beach and told the waves get out of reach" May have had Danny John-Jules in however he may have nothing to do with it :) Thanks in advance
Anyone help me remember this one? I can only remember it was some sort of creepy show for kids which featured a group of women with some sort of magic/mental power who somehow combined their abilities and inadvertently created a masked creature called Century. It was probably BBC - maybe late...
It's a good time to celebrate this great TV series as it will be the centenary of Cousteau's birth on June 11th. I do hope one of the channels does a tribute. My family were always glued to the episodes as they went out in the 70s. Cousteau was an early pioneer of marine ecology, and I can...
