The theme tune to flashing blade was a classic justincast. What about paulus the wooden gnome and the Herb garden.....

Yes, Great theme tune "Fight" - maybe they should play it in the dressing room before a game.

TISWAS...start the saturday off before heading out to the Lane later ....

Crikey, Tingha and Tucker - I'd really forgotten that. Brilliant.
My earliest memory is a Hanna-Barbera cartoon which went by the name of ATOM ANT. No-one I know can remember it, but it did happen... Google says so.

What about Dobbin the donkey?

I got in trouble with my Dad for mentioning how 'ucknall folk could spell Sea Hunt with 4 letters.

"Porky's" wasn't a favourite of mine despite Mike Hunt being announced.
