Some amazing ones already named! My favourites were
Rainbow, Rosie & Jim, Art Attack, The Raccoons, Gummi Bears, The Riddlers, Come Outside, Knightmare, Finders Keepers, California Dreams, Saved by the Bell, Hangin with Mr Cooper, Sweet Valley High, Dinosaurs
There was also a show that had a crocodile and a chicken, and a fox, and there was a chick in an egg who lived on the windowsill. I think it was called Chicken Minute?

You and me, let’s pretend. They used to be on at lunch time about the time of rainbow etc.
I used to love Let's Pretend.

Chocablock was another of my favourites. I used to be obsessed with How we used to live which they showed in school back in the 80's

As a kid, bedtime for me was always signalled by Max and Ruby, Maggie and the Ferocious Beast, and then Little Bear on immediately afterwards. I had to watch all of those cartoons before I’d go to bed.

When I was very young, I loved Bear in the Big Blue House (the goodbye song still makes me cry), Come Outside, Kipper, Rosie and Jim, Brum.

I got a little bit older (I’d say 7ish?) and they started showing the old cartoons on Noggin/Nick Jr bedtime - King Rollo, Mr Benn, Rainbow, Bod, Button Moon, Trumpton. I liked them all except Bod who was a bit creepy and Trumpton which was dull. There was another one - camberwick green? Omg, zzz. Soz to any camberwick green lovers.

I loved King Rollo. My brother learnt how to tie his shoelaces watching that 😂

Can anyone remember the programme that was shown in primary school that was a fox speaking Spanish?!
 
I don't think that was a magic changing room he visited-I think it was a drug den. That shopkeeper wore a fez, so may have been North African or Turkish and giving Benn really strong hashish! Benn thought he'd gone to other lands and times but was just stoned!
I was lucky enough to receive an email from Mr Benn once! Or at least from Ray Brooks, the actor who voiced Mr Benn. He is quite a talented chap really.

Some childrens programmes I can remember -
The Woodentops
Andy Pandy
Bill & Ben
The Magic Roundabout
Banana Splits - I used to love the cartoon serials that were shown. The Arabian Knights and The Three Musketeers.
The ghosts of Motley Hall
Does anyone remember the serial Children of the stones - a genuinely scary series set in Avebury Wiltshire. They gave it another name in the series. Avebury is well worth a visit.
That will do for now, more to come.
