    Re: help needed on childrens program name

    are you sure it is and the things i do come true???
    found this

    SIMON IN THE LAND OF CHALK DRAWINGS (1977)
    THAMES
    BOG-STANDARD CARTOON kid makes with the "special" chalk to create a magical black-background world of his own. Overshadowed at the time by the similar JAMIE AND THE MAGIC TORCH, perhaps because chalk drawings are not as interesting as a unicycling policeman.
    TV CREAM immortality rating -
    ..."WELL YOU KNOW MY NAME IS SIMON, AND THE THINGS I DRAW COME TRUE"

                on the link heather put /and me after lol it does say

                Simon in the Land of Chalk Drawings was produced in the early 1970s by FilmFair London

                so maybe tv cream got the year wrong (wouldnt be the 1st time )

                    Hello Lulu - Does this site help ? It says on here early seventies and there are pics taken from the programme and a clip of the opening music - maybe it'll jog the memory and help you decide
