That was filmed just down the road from you & me, rod. Whitley Bay beach - sounds much nicer than it is!

Aye, I was down Whitley Bay and Tynemouth last night for a drive with my missus. They're supposed to be spending £60mill on it to regenerate it - God knows it's needed!

I hated Worzel Gummage too. Just the thought of it sends a shiver down my spine. It was just really freaky...

TELETUBBIES

I have to agree with you. In Holland there was a satire program that created The Tering Tubbies (Tering: the Dutch word for medieval tubercoluse and used nowadays as a term for 'just something bad'). It wasn't that funny, but it was because everyone hated the Teletubbies so much.

Yeah teletubbys and the vast majority of toddlers tv sucks now.

Just look at the tweenies... I wudve been very afraid of them as a small child.

Whatever was wrong with postman pat...?

"Barney" scares me.

I have a real loathing of barney i don't just dislike him I activally detest the big purple dino. When I stayed in belfast a few years ago sometimes on a saturday in the centre there would be somebody dressed up as barney and it would take all my willpower not to start beating on him with a large pointy stick

I also disliked rent-a-ghost too they freeked me out

Barney is kinda freaky-something about a big purple dinosaur (shudder)

Boobahs are really scary - jumping about all over the place.

What was Wurzel Gummage about?

 

[Adasunshine]

Barney is awful!!! I'm with you fully on that one SA, my little boy loves him but I refuse to let him watch it (call me cruel, I don't care).

Boobahs are creepy! *shudders*

As for Postman Pat Kye, CBeebies, still play it, they've brought it up to date (with same voice for Pat) and my boys love it, it's one of their favourites along with Fireman Sam and Charlie & Lola (wonderful cartoon, even I'm addicted to that one) - they have good taste!

As for The Tweenies - they scare me now, let alone how I would have felt as a child watching them! Still, again, both my boys seem to like it but it's not their favourite, they soon switch off and go and play with their toys when Tweenies is on!

"why don't you" used to do my head in.....but I still watched it...don't know why, the theme song even said "why don't you just switch off your television set and do something less boring instead" guess I should've done.
