Your first memory of TV?

[SteveAs]

Mine was watching England vs Germany in 2001 with my dad and uncle while my mum and aunt went to the pub

OOOOOOHHHHHH THE CLANGERS.

Larry Grayson on the Generation Game!

Coronation Street, Terry Duckworth. Major crush. I was 3 🙄

'Barnaby the bear's my name/Never call me Jack or Jane/I will sing my way to fame/Barnaby the bear's my name'.

Andy Pandy. Trumpton. The Magic Roundabout. All in black and white. The test card. As soon as the BBC 6 O'clock news started it was time for bed. Children knew their place! Oh, & when the television was turned off it would cool down to a white spot that I had to put my finger on! When I was a bit older I remember literally hiding behind the sofa during an episode of Dr.Who (The Cybermen). There was no daytime TV. For anyone.

Watching The Sullivan’s, and Take the High Road at my grandparents house during the school holidays.

Hectors house
Play school
Fingerbob
Bagpuss
Mary mungo and midge

Button Moon and Pigeon Street, I reckon.

The bit at the beginning of Bagpuss when it goes from sepia to colour
Vague memories also of The Incredible Hulk

It's a knockout - late 70's, and Bagpuss, Monkey Magic and Playschool.

A very clear memory of watching Cheggars Plays Pop, when we lived in a house that we left when I was three. Obviously I didn’t know what it was at the time but I do remember the logo.

First episode of Eastenders

Play School and Play away

We got our first tv in 1966 ready for my dad to watch the world cup. I was 10. I can remember him falling off the chair with excitement when England won and that my mum had gone out to the library in a sulk because she didnt want the football on.

Sitting on my Dad's knee aged 4 watching Holiday'88 in what's now the downstairs bedroom at my parents house. We'd just moved in and it was a complete wreck. I miss him a lot.

Handful of Songs in the early 1970s.
Loved that programme

The Flowerpot Men. Then Hickory House, Hectors House, Playschool. And White Horses, and Belle and Sebastian (both dubbed and in b&w).

I don't remember the first programme but I do remember thinking that the people were actually inside the television.

Pigeon Street and the Narnia series they made in the late 80s.

Mary, Mungo and Midge.
(Outs self as to age.... 😮)

Popeye, Pussy Cat Willum, Ollie the Owl and Fred Barker. I thought Ollie was the epitome of wit.

The Sunday serials mid 70s

Another one for Andy Pandy and Flowerpot Men. (I apparently cried when Andy waved goodbye) a Disney programme introduced by the magic mirror (which put the shits up me) Kennedy's assassination.

Armstrong on the moon, got to stay up late for that.

In fact my grand father insisted that I get up for the landing, as he was very excited, he was born in the Victorian era, and now could see people on the moon.
