I still have the 'Fangs for the Memory' scene in my brain, from Count Duckula!

I do think it great shame that you were so deprived across the pond.

Did you see Captain Simian and the Space Monkeys, Mog? It's in a similar vein.

I /loved/ that show!

am i the only one whos never heard of captain whatever hes called?

Pugwash?

I vaguely remember Captain Simian, but for some reason only the one episode clearly, they kept wittering on about flux, and I didn't understand it...

I can't remember exactly what I liked about it, other than I thought it was great!

I remember pugwash ,also remember Bill n Ben, Lamb Chop ,
I can't remember exactly what I liked about it, other than I thought it was great(poss the hornpipe going on in back ground) and abismall

*wakes up from the daze of indian summer*

Oooh, IIEM, a blue java, please.

Ah Pugwash- Roger the Cabin Boy, Seaman Stains and that other dude, the fat one.

think im too young for all these memories
i remeber rainbow if that helps!

naw pippa longstrum (lizzie longstockings in uk)

The last episode of rainbow. If you thought there was Inuendo with the names in Pugwash you aint seen nothing yet.

I would post the website with the address on but since its too rude for tv (so to speak) Ill send u a link through my bands page.

Its the big blue link about half way down the page.

ooh ill go have a look!
i never got what was wrong with rainbow when i last watched it!
i used to love button moon as well!

Even as I child I never believed you couldn't blast of to the moon in a washing up liquid bottle.

oh my god!
i just checked it out, did my parents actually no what i was watching as a child or was that my birds and bees education! no wonder i have the worlds dirtiest mind!
were off to button moon, follow mr spoon button moon

Yeah, well, on this side of the pond we had H & R Puffinstuff. And the stuff the creators of that show were puffing wasn't tobacco.

Hehehe, that link was posted on the website for the Guild I belong to in Star Wars:Galaxies! A couple of hours later I was logged into the game and a wookie went past in Mos Eisley called Bungle!

Michael Dorn did the voice for Captain Simian and the humour was very British looking back, perhaps that's why it didn't run for long. If it had been made over here, I reckon it would ranked up there with DM.

[Mog] Sorry, the only person I've even /heard/ of besides Dangermous was Michael Dorn.

[Dylan] And we have had, like, ZERO access to TV, either.

That episode of Rainbow is great!

Re: The names in Captain Pugwash: It's a fib. There were never any characters in the series with those names.

Wasn't there the books to go with the tv series with the inuendo? Or am I just making stuff up. Probably the second one.

I'm sure the makers of The Magic Roundabout weren't smoking tobbacco. And Dr. Seuss as well. You can't write something like that without being on drugs.

i heard the majic roundabout was supposed to be all about drugs anyway, thats why it is how it is
