The first TV show I can remember from around 64-65 when I was 3-4 years old,I absolutely loved it.

The best Batman by far imo and Burt Ward superb as Robin.

Yeh. But that was the beauty of that series, greyhound. It was meant to be crap. Years ahead of it's time.

I remember one scene, I think it may have been from the film, when Batman was climbing up a rope to get back into the Batcopter from the ocean with a large shark attached to his leg. Our hero didn't even flinch!

Burt Ward progressed from being Robin to starring in ****o films.

He was also John Osbourne's understudy in the mid 70's.











Sorry.......that was Bob Ward.





I don't think Bob did on screen ****.








That was Bernd Haas of course.

I recorded that film a couple of months ago for my grandson, he loved it and calls it the 'real Batman' film.
