Bagpuss, the Flumps, Ivor the Engine, from when I was very young.

Then of course there were the fantastic epic cartoon series like Dogtanian, Around the World with Willy Fogg, Ulysses 31 etc.  Now look around at the freaking Powerpuff Girls and see where progress has got us.

Anybody remember Gideon the depressed duck?  I'm beginning to think it was a hallucination.

David Jason did the voice of DM , Terry Scott did penfold.... Mike Harding was co owner of the production company.

Good stuff.

Bagpuss, Magic roundabout, Rainbow...although very dodgy now.

I have chorlton and the wheelies and bagpuss on dvd.

Anyone remember Heidi?? That ran forever and the Grandfather did the voice for Baron Greenback(just kidding but they sound the same!)
