Cagney and Lacey, I was allowed to sneak down (when me and my sister had gone to bed) and watch it after the 9 o'clock news. I had such a crush on Christine Cagney.

As mentioned, The Adventure Game (Gronda, gronda, Rangdo), Krypton Factor, Grange Hill, Tiswas (Phwoar, Sally James!), Swap Shop, all the old film serials - Flash Gordon and Buck Rodgers starring Larry "Buster" Crabbe.

And one no-one ever remembers - Captain Zep (Captain Zep, Captain Zep, Ooo-oooo, super space detective!)

Fayshun

Blue Thunder was a rival belly-popper based TV series.

It was better bacause the feature length first episode had Ray Scheider in it.

'One for all and all for one, doo de doo de dooo deee'

'Eeeeeighty days around the world....'

I also loved Belle and Sebastian, and some cartoon with a magician called Mandrake (I think) in it but I can't for the life of me think of the name :/

Fayshun

16-09-2008, 20:07

Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons.

Not the crap re-imagined one where he's got a girlfriend. The old one with hand models and strings.
