I've got the DVDs of The Littlest Hobo. Watched them last week..😁

MrsMigginsCat · 26/06/2022 20:32

Why Don't You, Roland Rat on TVam, Wacaday, Huckleberry Finn. They used to bring out the really old stuff and The Monkees which was always on in the holidays.

MustBeDueSomeBetterFeet · 26/06/2022 20:51

Press Gang!

EscapeTheCastle · 26/06/2022 20:51

There was a chess programme I'm sure was a holiday only thing.

Was Kickstart a bit of a summer hols show as well? Kids on Motorcross bikes falling off on mud hills.

Any one remember an A Level results and Uni clearing show with phone lines hosted by Tony Wilson. I used to be befuddled by it as I dint know anything about going to uni.

Yes to the Monkees! Their music always gives me fun holiday vibes, almost like I lived a 60's Californian dream whilst actually being in 1980's Devon.

Love this thread!

I loved Why Dont You, Littlest Hobo (There's a voice.. keeps on calling me..) and very badly dubbed Heidi.

Also,

Wacaday with Timmy Mallet.. Weeeeeee're Wide awake!

He Man/She Ra

Godzilla (and Godzooky?)

The Racoons and Top Cat (although I think these were Saturday morning cartoon during Saturday Superstore or Going Live.

Great memories.
