Re: Daktari

The thing about coming to this site very recently is that I keep discovering threads that I want to contribute to, ...but which are actually quite old!

I loved Daktari. It was one of the many staple summer holiday morning programmes alongside White Horses, Belle and Sebastian, Banana Splits - yes, we all them on here so I won't go on.

I loved the excitment of this other world that was the African jungle, and loved the fact that there were all these marvelous animals being helped by sympathetic characters. But is my memory correct that the character of the daughter was a spoilt and rather annoying young wotsit?

Nice clip of the opening a closing sequences here:

Dont worry about it, better to add to an exsisting thread rather than starting a new one on the same subject, dig away I know I did

It always made me laugh the way they showed you how Clarence saw things with his cross-eyes!
