Yes yes yes to Knightmare and Trapdoor…I made all the characters in plasticine and tried to make my own version of Trapdoor!

My entire family loves Hey Duggee - it’s the perfect balance of kid friendly, together with adult humour!

One episode managed to parody Apocalypse Now… genius!

Having young kids you just gotta watch them!

Anyone else remember The Racoons? Damn that Cyril Sneer :unamused:

Tots TV was a favourite of mine, still find myself occasionally bursting into the theme song “I’m a Tot, Je suis une Tot, Tilly Tom and Tiny…” think that was put on to try to teach me French. I was also a fan of the Tweenies and also Bananas in Pyjamas.

Growing a bit older and getting into cartoons I liked Biker Mice from Mars, The Cramp Twins, Mona the Vampire and Pinky & The Brain.

I already love this topic, so much nostalgia (and so many annoying stuck in your head theme tunes)
Some of my favourites growing up were,
Button Moon
Sooty
Postman Pat,
Rainbow,
X-Men cartoon, used to be on before live and kicking
The Animals of Fathing Wood,
The Queens nose,
My Little Pony…the original 80s early 90s cartoon,
Teenage mutant ninja turtles,
Nightmare…does anyone remember that game show.

Also does anyone remember a 90s gameshow on bbc1 that was on the kids section where a team had to do different puzzles, i swear I remember it having an elevator involved, and one of the games was the kids had to swim in a giant bowl of what looked like letter cereal, to find the letters to spell a word??? I may be going crazy here.

@Fallen666 loved the X-Men cartoon, but that’s cos i was reading the comics in the 70’s! The show you can’t remember rings a bell, did it have early cgi sets?

@BigishBen she’s a babe.
