Flatlander 15 Feb 11:28am, 15 Feb 2024 3,122 posts	0 Flatlander I think perhaps I am too old for this thread! I've never heard of most of these programmes, and those that I have are from when I stopped being a child, so I never watched them! Plus, when I was a child, as soon as I got in from school I did my homework before dinner with my parents, so I never saw most children's TV.

Diogenes 15 Feb 11:34am, 15 Feb 2024 84,575 posts	0 Diogenes I did my homework laying on the lounge floor in front of the tv. It was usually okay. My reasoning was I couldn't concentrate if I was sat at a table in silence.
Ally-C 15 Feb 11:37am, 15 Feb 2024 5,046 posts	0 Ally-C Moving up in age a little, loved the first series of Grange Hill whose characters would have been round about my age. That was immensely popular when it came out at my school. I got pelters because of this 🤬 https://youtu.be/zTqEKKpArZk?si=bUxws-Dr-mh_8umW
