    Bloody hell - Chockablock!





    I remember it being funny when Automan went to 11 round the corners.

    Heretics, how can you forget this...



    I really do miss Tomorrow's World so much, only The Gadget show on channel 5 even comes close & that largely consists subjective reviews and poorly researched info or explanations ( "the electric engine" is my favourite term they often use... grrr ).

    Chockablock must surely be the limit of far my memory goes back, I don't think I'd even started nursery when I was watching that.

    Boy I loved Thomas The Tank Engine with all my heart I reckon. Just watched that episode - classic, Henry always was a tw@t! But I've always had it in my head that Gordon was a grumpy b@stard and had it in for Thomas - turns out they got on alright most of the time - who knew?



    Kenco - based on the vids you've posted I'm gonna chance my arm and guess you were a 1979 baby...?

    Love it! Used to get up early to watch Ulyssess before school :)

    Now, does anyone remember a cartoon loosely based on King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table? I remember there was a good oldt 'power up' sequence where the round table would rise up some big tunnel and change colours etc as the knights went into battle mode. Have always tried to remember it but I've never been able to!

    I know it's not Visionaries, although that was an ace show too!
