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?

Moondial, late 80s. I was about 7 and it scared me, even though it was an after school programme. It was repeated a few years later then loved it. I don't think it's a show many people remember.

beekeeper yes it was...but I just typed earthfarts into YouTube and came up with a farting hippo😂😂😂

Great thread but now I feel really depressed!! 😕
Moschops. Tottie. Jase and the wheeled warriors. The Lowdown. The Moomins. Why don't you. Jeremy Bear. Bagpuss. Trap door. Chocky. Josie Smith. Chorlton and the Wheelies. The Flumps. The Double Deckers. Heidi. Let's pretend.
These are just a few that I loved watching when I was a kid. There are many more.

I loved the Moondial too. I was an odd child and loved wierd stuff like that. Does anyone else remember The kids of Degrassi Street?

Almost all of you are far too young!

The Magic Roundabout was the best children's TV ever. The Clangers were fabulous, along with Bagpuss. The Herb Garden was great as well, loved Parsley the Lion.

Wow great thread loved loads on here also loved are you afraid of the dark.

Raggy Dolls
Button Moon
Super Ted

Yes, got it for Christmas. It came with a book explaining how the series came to be and has filming info for each episode.
Only problem was that once I started to watch I wanted to go through all the episodes in one go and had to be very strong and ration myself to a couple of episodes a day.

@oneoffname

Thanks!! I'm going to look out for that! Ahh, nostalgia 😊

Thunder cats

Beekeeper and Betty I reckon you are the same age as me. Do you remember the Doubledeckers? Also Stig of the Dump, and Captain Caveman?

I remember the Double Deckers, the youngest one in the gang was called Tiger cos she carried a toy tiger everywhere, yes?

The chubster was called Donut wasn’t he!
Stig of the Dump rings a bell... don’t remember captain caveman

Just read through the thread.
Loads of great ones have already been mentioned.
One I didn't see mentioned though was Woof! It was one of my absolute favourites when I was young.

Moomins & Mr Rossi were my favourites.

@Tottie, yes, the kids of Degrassi Street and Degrassi Junior High!
