I can't spell after a few drinkys but what the hey?!
Just thinking about kids programmes and wondered what everyone's favourites were when they were a kid and which one do you secretly love now?
I used to love the Clangers (and still do!) but now find myself tuning into Spongebob Squarepants
Go on you know you want to tell all!!

Anyone remember Jonny Briggs?

chjlly · 31/12/2005 17:31

Janh · 31/12/2005 21:33

Johnny Briggs had a girl from Corrie in it (I was watching it wirh the kids or I wouldn't have known - she was Johnny's sister I think?)

Josie Smith, anyone?

blondie82 · 31/12/2005 21:37

i used to love button moon, and can anyone remember pob?!!

octavia · 31/12/2005 21:39

was marmalade atkins the girl in four weddings and a funeral ? she's dead now I think

Janh · 31/12/2005 21:39

Yes! - pob was on Ch 4, in about 1993? My kids used to pull a pob face (extend ears, pull lips down and blow cheeks out!)

Janh · 31/12/2005 21:40

Charlotte Coleman, octavia? She played the girl in Oranges are not the only fruit?

blondie82 · 31/12/2005 21:42

i thought that pob was in the 80's?!! im younger than i thought then!!

octavia · 31/12/2005 21:48

oh right so she did, but she did play marmalade atkins as well I think

Janh · 31/12/2005 21:52

Oh, could have been 80s, blondie - I have DD1 on vid doing pob face in early 90s so just assumed it was contemporary - probably wrong as usual

blondie82 · 31/12/2005 21:59
