What the wierdest childrens programme from our childhood?

[LadyTophamHatt]

Just seen Pootle the flump on FF's member profile and it struck me that "The Flumps" was a really bizarre programme.

We were really bought up on some wierd shit weren't we?

Do Not Adjust Your Set

The Banana Splits

The Doubledeckers

more recently (slightly) The Snow Spider

The Wacky Races..did dick dastardly ever win?

deffo chorlton and the wheelies - I bought the DVD for dds recently and they love it

Don't know if this one made it to the UK, but looking back, The Funky Phantom was kind of an odd idea.

And

H.R. Pufnstuf

The Bugaloos

pfer, do you mean Runaround?

How about Catweazle? What was that all about?

Yeah Catweazle, very odd!

HR Puffinstuff, was that the one with a talking flute and Witchiepoo?

Does anyone remember 'The Changes'? about electricity pylons and a bit later 'The Children of the Stones'?

Potty1-I posted yesterday about The Changes, Have a look Here and have a listen to the theme tune.

I loved Catweazle, Tarot (my absolute favourite - lived in a windmill had supernatural powers) and The Tomorrow People.

Another vote here for Changes - that was brilliant.

Runaround with Mike Read (FRAAAANK!!!!!!!!!!!!)

This is such a blast from the past! I have had a permenant grin plastered on my face reading this thread! Oh it takes me back...

Mr Benn, Chorlton and the Wheelies (also have on DVD and kids love it), BAgpuss, Flumps, Playschool (with HAmble, Big and Little Ted, Humpty and Jemima!) Playaway, Pipkins and Think of a Number was ace!

Oh! My! GOD!!!!!

When I was 5 I watched a TV programme that scared the bejeesus out of me and have spent the last 10 years trying to find out what it was - have asked on numerous forums, TV sites etc. and was still none the wiser.

Now I'm pretty sure it was The Changes, after looking at the VTs in the link.

Those of you who remember it, can you please tell me if in the final episode the girl ends up in an underground cave talking to an illuminated rock?

If the answer is yes, my quest will be at an end...

Stig of the Dump...

Potty1 - Children of the Stones - Scared the cr*p out of me when I was small. I read the book and my parents told me it was based on a real live place (Avebury) so every holiday we ever went on after that I was obsessed with making sure we went nowhere near Avebury.

Anyone remember a BBC 'family' drama called The Nightmare Man ? It was filmed in Port Isaac in Conrwall. We had a holiday there after we'd seen it & I don't think I slept all week. Would have been about 1980.

wessexgirl - I've got a feeling you could be right about the ending to The Changes. Some vague memory cell somewhere in my brain has just switched on.

Anyone mentioned the very badly dubbed 'Monkey'? Loved that.
Bod was pretty weird too.

Furball, I'm officially excited - looking for it on Amazon later.

Heh heh, I've got Children of the Stones on DVD. The scariest thing about it is the theme tune, veeeery creepy.

Tales from Europe I seem to remember varied between boring, odd and incomprehensible

I can't remember the ending of Changes, at all! Sorry!

I was only thinking about The Phantom Tollbooth the other day Only read the book, but that was plain bizarre.

Can anyone tell me what Morph's little white mate was called?
