The Fosyte Saga, wasn't that with Susan Hampshire? I've not long finished reading the book.

Yes, and Eric Porter played Soames and Nyree Dawn Porter, his wife. I think Susan Hampshire played Fleur, his daughter? It was remade not that long ago, I think.

OMG!  The Double Deckers, yes I loved them, and Noggin the Nog and Jackanory - if this all excitement continues I'll not sleep tonight!!

I liked Jack Hargreaves      http://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourceid=navclient&hl=en-GB&ie=UTF-8#q=jack+hargreaves&hl=en&site=webhp&prmd=ivo&source=univ&tbs=vid:1&tbo=u&ei=bdC0TPfaMNSRjAe2-MG_Aw&sa=X&oi=video_result_group&ct=title&resnum=2&ved=0CC4QqwQwAQ&fp=cd6a0ce0765499ee   Used to watch on my day off,settling down with a Vesta Paella in front of the telly

Oh, Vesta. There's another blast from the past. We used to have a Vesta curry on a Friday night - we thought we  were the very latest thing. Never had the paella though.

You can get Jack Hargreaves "Out of Town" on DVD now.

I loved Noggin the Nog too. It was quite dark as I remember - all those ravens, was it? Wonder if it is still available.

Is it not amazing how much you can dredge up from the depths of your memory?

Get thyself on youtube and watch them all now. I think I've wasted a couple of hours doing just that...........youtube is  great

[ballingall]

Yes, we've got Out of Town on DVD.

This is maybe as old as some of the shows you have mentioned- but All Creatures Great and Small. The OH bought it on DVD the other day, and we have been watching them again.

When I was a child I loved Dallas, used to watch Dynasty as well. Lots of the other shows you have mentioned- Little house on the Prairie, The Waltons, Black Beauty.

I loved ACGAS - I have the books and have read them loads of times. In fact, everything I know about livestock comes from those books 

Loved Dallas too - who shot JR? and the dreadful dream sequence.

[jinglejoys]

  I never watched the Dallas dream sequence I'd lost interest by then,once they've all climbed into bed with each other the third time round and they've run out of murders and accidents it all gets much of a muchness!I stopped watching Emmerdale(when it was a farm)after that ridiculous plane crash (actually it was when a herd of goats were driven into a barn and in full shot of the camera was a pile of rhubbarb...never saw the goats again or mention,I wonder why )
    Stopped watching Eastenders when Dirty Den was shot!
Loved Noggin the Nog...think it followed on after Out of town...and You Tube is great,I can watch Fury and Champion all over again ...and pleanty of stuff with Mules on it
