Extra or wot Momma? You got it going on hunny bunny.

Todays childrens programmes are an absolute bloody disgrace. The entire archives centre at both the BBC and ITV want opening up and all the old kids programmes want repeating again, starting as far back as Muffin the Mule.

Very true Sir Bill, and there should be a nostalgic kids channel too.

Yeah what ever happened to decent cartoons that WERE funny ... the Pink Panther for example, or Road runner ...

Re: I feel sorry for kids today

I expect the majority of the decent kids programmes we loved have been offered up as blood sacrifice to the Gods of Political Correctness.

I once heard Billy Connelly on the subject of political correctness and use the quote to this day...........
'Political correctness is the language of cowardism'

Re: I feel sorry for kids today

Yes I agree Momma - every word has to be weighed before you open your mouth - just in case it causes offence ! And what happened to the famous British Free Speech ??

Re: I feel sorry for kids today

I better not respond to that question Joybee, in case the PC brigade are reading.

Re: I feel sorry for kids today

i really do feel bad for kids today.
look at we had in the seventies eighties and nineties.

wonderful tv shows like grange hill which im currently watching from the start.
sesame street,cartoons like dangermouse,batfink,superted and countless others.
if i had my choice id rather have what we had than all this technology and reality shows.
there is no where near as much quality tv now as we had.

kids now are to much in front of the tv screen.
when i was younger id be out all the time,we have acres and acres of fields wher me and my friends would stay out till 9 o clock.
the days went so quick but we had great times.

Re: I feel sorry for kids today

How much're ITV(1)'s weekend schedule planners on a week?
They've just turned lazy by thinking that weekend telly has to revolve around Simon Cowell, James Bond, Poirot, Columbo, Reality TV.
Hey, Anybody remember Sapphire And Steel? Speaking of David McCallum, he can be seen in COLDITZ which is being repeated on YESTERDAY(12) on weekdays at 17:00 and before that there's the Onedin Line.
