What is your earliest TV memory?

[Charlavail]

Mine is coming down for a cuddle with my mum (not a regular occurrence) and Emmerdale being on. Derek Pollard was in some kind of restaurant or bistro arguing with a brunette lady. Emmerdale is on quite early so I'm guessing I must have been 3ish as I went to bed and got back up again.

Oh my gosh, just found out he is called Eric after all these years 😅😳

Watching The Moomins. Then getting a Moomins duvet set!

Play school and the Get Along Gang

Waking up early and seeing the Test Card girl with the clown after teletext . Terrified the life out of me 😂

Being so excited because they said Michael Fish was coming on next. Thought it was going to be a cartoon about a fish

Play School - the arched window.

Magic Roundabout - Douglas, Florence, Zebedee & Ermintrude.

The Herb Garden with a lion called Parsley & a dog called Dill.

Playschool - let’s look through the arched window.

Rainbow - up above the streets and houses, rainbow flying high…

Painting With Nancy.

The Cedar Tree.

Pebble Mill at One.

Farmhouse Kitchen.

Hartley Hare.

Chorlton and the Wheelies.

Watching ‘Watch with Mother’ at lunchtime and my df cycled home from work for his lunch. I was 2 or 3. Circa 1960

Cartoons with Dad, batman and m.a s.h with my brother.

The Flumps
Bagpuss
Battle of the Planets (?)
The Littlest Hobo

They must have all been around the same time, pre-school ish.

A religious man making people lie down in water and screaming prayers at them. It was on all the time. No idea what it was but it would have been around 1990.

Stan Ogden's funeral.

Crossroads Motel- there used to be a final scene right after the end credits, I was allowed to wait for that, but then had to go to bed. Not that I was watching the show, it was just a timing thing.

You must be my generation! Also loved Andy Pandy and Finger Bob's.
In the world of soaps I actually remember when Deirdre Barlow went into hospital to have Tracy! I remember her saying "it might even be twins" so this was even before scans were invented lol

Andy Pandy, Bill and Ben - Both on Watch with Mother BBC.

A very very, long time ago ...

The Woodentops.

Rainbow
Button Moon
Bagpuss
Pigeon street
Playschool

Ah yes. Bill and Ben the Flowerpot Men and Weeeeeeeed, who was a bit of a hippy ....

Dr Who, in black and white, and playing Daleks with my sister 'exterminate exterminate'...

The oldsters are out in force tonight ...

Playdays - I remember being upset that it was the Why Bird stop because it was my least favourite. The tent stop was, in my expert 3 year old (ish) opinion, the best stop.

My TV memories are in chunks of time I think. I have a Playschool/Bagpuss type time which preceded the Mr Ben/Bod days.

Seeing the music video for Uptown girl by Billy Joel in maybe 1983/4
