Title: Retro TV Post by: Ginginho on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 09:47:40 We have had a discussion at work this morning about old TV shows and what your favourites were.
I have done a day of what I would consider a good Retro TV viewing 8) Morning Whackaday Inspector Gadget Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles He-Man Danger Mouse Rentaghost Superted Bananaman Lunch -> early evening Take Hart Thundercats Grange Hill Scooby Doo The Really Wild Show Ghostbusters Treasure Hunt Fun House A-Team Evening Strike It Lucky Noels House Party Family Fortunes You Bet I'm sure there are loads of others I have missed and go "Oh yeah, how could I have forgotten that". They should create a Retro TV channel with shows like this, not the crap they keep putting on UK Gold.

Unfortunately I no longer have challenge so I can't watch it. Think it's gonna be one of the later series which aren't as good. Still good to keep on such things.

Title: Retro TV Post by: pauld on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 11:07:36 Ivor the Engine and The Clangers. And the Singing Ringing Tree which used to be on every school holidays and for some reason frightened the shit out of me when I was about six. I don't think I understood it properly so I'd like to see it again to see if it really was scary.

Title: Retro TV Post by: oxford_fan on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 12:52:09 Family Fortunes is class, they've just taken our NTL away so I can't watch it on Challenge TV anymore. I didn't realise how often they came out with stupid answers. Les in his prime is a joy to watch too.
Title: Retro TV Post by: land_of_bo on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 13:04:05 What was the one with Debbie Greenwood where they used to play the decathlon arcade game at the end?
She was fit as well! Title: Retro TV Post by: land_of_bo on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 13:07:07 Also, the gameshow where they have to cross the vortex at the end, was it the adventure game or something?

It was only called hero turtles in this country becauase of some bizarre cencorship laws at the time, ninjas were to violent for a kiddies show or someething.
