I remember Battle of the planets that was cool
No memories of Knightmare though what was it?
 
Knightmare was a kind of role playing game where a team who directed someone through a series of puzzle elements and pitfalls in various fantasy themed environments. It appealed to older kids really It was on ITV in the 1980's.

My kids used to watch Knightmare, I was a very young mam ;)
I use to like, The World around Us, The Bay City Roller Show, Jaqu custo ( Spelt wrong sorry) and The Six Millon Dollar Man followed by The Six Millon Dollar Woman. :)
 
Apropos of not much but the Jaques Cousteau programme was once in one of our comics as kids as Jaques Custard (dont remember much about the comic) but the name stuck!! ;D Ever since we've always used that name for an underwater programme (just being silly ::)) Sorry Susan I'm not showing off with my spelling just realised thats how it must look :-[ :-[
 
;D Thank you Dick, I had know idea how to spell it, and it didn't look like showing off to me :)

Any fans of Mr Benn in their youth? There was a lovely article on BBC Breakfast about this exhibition , the Museum is in Hampshire way far too South for me but anyone around there on the forum who might want to revisit their youth here is the article and the museum details.
