Hong Kong Fuey (though I think that was 70s)

WinkyisbackontheButterBeer I remember Greenclaws. In the greenhouse, with Owlma the owl. Wasn't a cartoon though - it was realish.

I reckon it's that In Russia I am Ivan, in Sweden I am Jan. In Germany I'm Johann, in England I am John one.

DP is guessing Defenders of the Earth, Ulysses, Visionaries or Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors.

Of those I only remember Defenders if the Earth - he obviously watched way more TV than I did!

And theme tune it was small classical music - woodwind.

It was called something quite long, like X the something, possibly a long mans name.

I'm pretty sure it was citv

I'm aware this is shite and vague

I can't believe it! NO ONE ever remembers Mysterious Cities of Gold! Or Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors. Or Ulysses. Or Dungeons and Dragons for that matter.
