Dad's Army
1968
Daktari
1966
Unfortunately I do remember this African safari adventure. With Clarence
the Cross-Eyed Lion and Judy the Chimp, each episode seemed as boring as
the last.
David Nixon's Magic Box 1968
(The) Dick Emery Show
1963
"Ooooh you are awful....but i like ya" This catch
phrase is still about in peoples minds. Overall this show was a chance
for Dick Emery to dress up and be several characters in short sharp bursts.
Dixon of Dock Green
1955
All I remember is the opening seen, where he
springs his legs and says "Evening all". 429 episodes were made.
Doctor at Large
1971
(The) Double Decker's 1971
This was about a gang of kids, 7 in total including a fat boy called
Doughnut and a little girl called Tiger because she always had a stuffed
tiger with her. They solved crimes and mysteries and explored areas all
based from their clubhouse, a London Transport double decker bus. 
Dr Who 1963
(The) Dukes of Hazard
1979
Emmerdale Farm
1972
Emu's Broadcasting Company 197?
Fawlty Towers
1975
Felix the Cat
19??
Finger Bobs 197?
Finger Bobs, starring Finger Mouse, was another program presented by
an ex-playschool presenter.
The idea was to show children something to make out of bits and bobs and
then this new found craft was infiltrated into a story involving Finger
Mouse and friends.
(The) Flintstones
1961
In recent times a film has been made, which goes to show the success
of this cartoon. With Fred and Barney, stone age "Men Behaving Badly" the
adventures run high. At one stage this cartoon almost became soap opera
status during the episodes leading up to them having Pebbles and BamBam.
Yabba-dabba-doo! Originally the Flintstones were to be called The Flagstones
but copyright problems got in the way.
(The) Flowerpot Men 1952
Bill and Ben the flower pot man as they were fully known. It was all
flobadob and flibadob. Don't forget that Little W-e-e-e-d would keep these
two in line. The difficulty was telling them apart. This was another Watch
with Mother classic.120 episodes were made.
(The) Funky Phantom
Wasn't this about a ghost of George Washington and a cat who
joined up with some American dudes and a beach buggy and solved Scooby
Doo style mysteries.
(The) Generation Game 1971
With Anthea Redfern, Bruce Forsyth produced one
of the greatest family shows of the 70's. In 1981 Larry Grayson took over,
then back to Bruce and currently Jim Davidson.
George and Mildred 1976
Give us a Clue 1976
(The) Goodies
1970
A brilliant (in its day) comedy made up of Bill Oddy, Tim Brooke-Taylor
and Graeme Gardener, who due to ignorance or ingenuity lived a life of
pure fiction. Classic episodes included a great kitten in London, the need
for the human race to wear string vests, scaring old women with a Nicholas
Parsons face and the time when they appeared in "It's
a Knockout" trying to find a golden egg from the Jack and the Beanstalk
giant. All these and many more have given it a cult following over the
years.75 episodes were made in all. A fan club is still going strong today
on the internet.
Grandad 1981
Grandstand 1958
Grange Hill 1978
You can't beat the original cast. Tucker Jenkins, Justin Bennett, Benny
Green, Trisha Yates, Alan Humphries, Michael Doyle, later on, Pogo Patterson,
Suzanne Ross, Gripper, Zammo and Roland.
(The) Golden Shot 1967
(The) Good Life 1974
Heads and Tails 197?
Hectors House
1968
This is a very distant memory of mine about a dog called Hector who
I think used to drive a car and live in a house along with a frog possibly
called Kiki and also I think there was also a cat called Za Za. This has
got French production written all over it. The episode would always end
with Hector saying "It's lucky for me I'm such a great big sensible old
Hector"
Help! It's The Hair Bear Bunch 1971
Oooo..Oooo. Mr Peevely. A great Hanna Barbara production with an invisible
motorbike for the 3 bears to ride around the zoo on.
(The) Herbs 1970
Each week we would be let into the Herb Garden if we repeated the magic
words "HERBIDACEOUS!" or something like that.The
characters included Constable Knatweed, Parsley, Sage the Owl, Aunt Mint
and Dill the Dog. This was another Michael Bond of Paddington fame production.
Hey Look, Thats Me! 197?
A bit of a poor mans Jim'll Fix It, with an annoying song that I still
have in my head to this day "Hey look that's me, doing what I want to do,
seeing what I want to see, hey, look, that's, me." How annoying!
Hong Kong Phooey 1975
We all know how frustrating it is seeing Spot the Cat doing all the
work and Hong Kong Henry getting all the credit. C'est la vie. Henrific!
How ! 1966
A magazine show with Fred Dinenage, Jon Miller, Bunty James and Jack
Hargreaves answering HOW things happen.
Houseparty
197?
Huckleberry Hound 1959
The only one i can remember is as the picture shows, Huck is a postman
and their is a Mutt who wants to shred the living daylights out of him.
Apparently other weeks he would be a knight or a snake charmer.
Inch High Private Eye 1974
This mini dwarf was able to get to places that no one else could due
to his size. He was known as the "Worlds Biggest Little Detective"
(The) Incredible Hulk
1978
It's a Knockout 1966
I loved this as a kid. Stuart "ha ha ha" Hall and Eddie "up and under"
Wearing commentated and refereed a 70's (they did it first) Gladiators.
With Jokers doubling the points and the marathon to build up points on,
it all lent itself to a hilarious competition. It really hotted up when
meeting European teams, in what was known throughout Europe as Jeux Sans
Frontiers.Peter Gabriel first brought this to my attention.
It's the Wolf 1970
