Favourite old children’s shows

[zscaler]

Sorry for shamelessly using AIBU for traffic!

I’m pregnant and feeling nostalgic for the children’s tv shows of my childhood! My absolute favourite was Old Bear Stories (from the Jane Hissey books), and I’ve just seen it’s all on YouTube so I can’t wait to show them to my baby!

What were your favourites, and do you think they beat out the Pepper Pigs of today?

So creepy!

@ThornyR0se Most of Follyfoot is on YouTube

I loved Flambards too.

Does anyone remember a series about a male gymnast, think he was involved in burglaries or something. Think it was on bbc. Really bugging me what it was called.

@1Morewineplease - goodness, yes, Chrystal Tips & Alastair - and Mary, Mungo & Midge narrated by the wonderful Richard Baker, such a departure from his serious news reading voice!

Does any one remember Egbert Nosh?
