Well seeing as this has developed into a TV programme discussion I will just throw in Fireball XL5 and Supercar. Everyone remembers Fireball but not many Supercar.
Also were you a Blue Peter fan or Magpie, I was originally a Blue Peter guy, buy as I grew older, Jenny Hanleys charms and tight T shirts caused me much interest!

here"s a damper

reading this thread i can relate to the majority of the posts, but i started thinking

I remember some days thinking "how lucky i am to be alive because of the actions/dedication/bravery of my forefathers"

we can"t just REMEMBER one day a year

sorry, just something close to my heart

but i played "japs n brits" every day

I was tempted to list everything in a Billy Joel style like "We Didn"t Strat the Fire", but then I realised that there was much worth remembering in the 90s.

Hang on, The Crystal Maze deserves a mention. They should bring that show back, just so that I can go on it.
