James The Cat

[Teejay]

Hi Guys,

Just watching Eggheads and a question about a cat came on (I can't bear CJ!) Anyway it reminded me of a TV shows from the late 80's(?). Does anyone else remember James The Cat. Sorry if he's already had a mention on here but hey ho!!

Yes, I remember him! The animation was slightly strange. His movements were all very small and he always had a smug expression on his face.

I remember it fairly will, it was narrated by Sean Arnold (Crozier in Bergarac) & was co-produced by Grampian.

What did I ever do to you, Teejay?

The moment I saw the monochrome feline I thought he looked familiar. Then I watched the intro...

What were they thinking! I have spent years thinking how great TV was when I were t' lad, and now this!

I'll be curled up in the fetal position tonight, clutching my dvds of Ulysses 31 and Doctor Snuggles...

I bet you liked Henry's Cat though, dintcha?

My favourite cat-type-bloke was Mooncat from Get Up And Go.

Who's Doctor Snuggles?

More a nostalgia thing than anything else, but it is fun. Also, amongst the writers that worked on the series was a certain Douglas Adams (actually watched one of his and John Lloyd's contributions last night). It is available on DVD, apparently I just read it was a box set, but I've picked up three vols separately from a Poundstretcher.

And as for disrespecting Ulysses 31, Teej, I am shocked...
