.... the extra little cartoons that the TV stations used to put on as extra fillers between shows! You know stuff like Tom and Jerry (the Fritz Freelang ones?).
Or Looney Tunes, where are they now?? I dont want a whole channel of them just the odd surprise cartoon!!

    When I was a toddler, have vivid memories of Felix the cat cartoon followed by Batman cartoon in the afternoons.

    Anyone remember the announcer in the leather chair on ITV back in the 70's and early 80's in the afternoon, used to introduce programmes and pop videos in between shows?
  • Peter Marshall, he was one of them, sometimes sat in a big leather chair

  • Double Diamond, it worked wonders.
  • good looking tv presenters that as a 12 year old you want to have a nescafe over.

  • Soundas, I've still got a collection of T.V comics from '51-53 with all those characters in plus Larry the Lamb/Dennis the dashund/Mr. Growser & Ernest the Policeman (Toy Town), and Prudence Kitten (one of your favourites I'm sure). Mexican Pete the Bad Bandit was actually the baddie to Hank and his horse Silver King, If you'd like to have a look at them give me a whisper. Fortunately these comics survived the great purge of '71 (by my mum).
