I'll second that

I'll third it. Did the opening sequence also have a Mr Punch-style face involved somewhere?

Dear all:

First of all, what a great site! What a walk down memory lane!

I wonder if anyone can help me identify a programme that was a favourite of mine as a kid in the mid eighties.

Unfortunately, I can't remember anything at all about it, other than:

-The opening (or perhaps) closing credits featured a small box (which I believe was part of the story and was magic, but not sure) spinning away from you on the screen
-This was accompanied by a song featuring a repeated "haunting" piano melody

That's it, unfortunately.

I'd be so grateful if anyone can help with this - a critical childhood memory!

Thanks!
