The height of technology was an ice Lilly stick in the spokes to make an "engine" noise. A flattened Kwenchi Kup wedged under the back wheel had the same effect. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every year I would vow "This year I'm going to watch every episode, all the way through." Don't think I ever saw more than 3 or 4. The theme music brings back a ton of happy memories though. No school kid in Scotland ever learned how it ended as it ran through the duration of the English school holidays. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Was that the one that was on during the summer holidays ( when the English started their holidays)? That's the one - we got it for about 3 weeks of ours. Until then had to put with Heide, Ante the boy from Lapland and the Moomins. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I remember, he escaped on a raft he built himself but lost his volleyball in the process. Then found his sweetheart was betrothed to someone else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit. 5 minutes is enough. I'm assuming Stately was an auto-correct from Starsky but anyway...a lad in my hometown painted his Morris Marina to look like that car. It was the saddest thing you ever saw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not me, largely because my dad only went at half time because that's when the back gates were just left open and anybody could wander in.

BFTD Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 When Carol Lee Scott (aka Grotbags) died a while back, I vaguely remember somebody posting that she'd had a reputation in showbiz as something of a goer. I bring this up purely because I don't think I should be the only one to have had their childhood memories defiled by that mental image. You're welcome. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
