Too many to list, but I have the first series of Round The Twist on DVD, along with the first 2 of Maid Marian & Her Merry Men.

I've got lots of the original run of Doctor Who, not just the ones from the 1980s I remembered first time round.

Yes that's right!

It helped that the BBC repeated some of the earlier ones in the 1990s, & the reference books around covered the whole 26 year original run, which got me interested.

By the time I had access to UK Gold they were only showing Doctor Who from Jon Pertwee onwards, & I managed to record a fair amount from there as well.

I like the new series as well, & have managed to record all of them.

I watch the odd Sweeney or Minder on ITV 4. On DVD, 6 million dollar man, the goodies, some Dr Who (Pertwee and Baker only), fawlty towers and recently picked up the first 3 volumes of the original Spiderman animated series from the 60s. My 2 year old daughter loves it. Much better than watching The Wiggles and Barney the dinosaur.

Re: what old tv shows from your youth do you still watch.

I like ITV4, some good old ITC shows and The Sweeney and Minder. UK Gold or whatever it's called now went downhill a few years ago which is a shame as I liked some of the oldies they used to show, especially old TOTP shows.
