I have fond memories of:

Captain Scarlet
Thunderbirds
Joe 90
Stingray
The Herb Garden
Trumpton
Chigley
Camberwick Green
The Clangers

Also remember watching comedy stuff with my dad:

The Goodies
Monty Python
Dave Allen

My mum never got the comedy stuff but did like Star Trek and westerns - I must've seen every Audie Murphy movie going. Also The Persuaders and The Saint.

As a family I remember we watched loads of natural history programmes (David Attenborough, Jacques Cousteau)

I also remember staying up late on Fridays to watch the horror movies - all the Hammer stuff was great and Peter Cushing was my hero!

I recall Robinson Crusoe and The Flashing Blade as being part of the Saturday TV viewing, and I remember going to "The Pictures" with my uncle on Saturday mornings and seeing episodes of Flash Gordon (Larry "Buster" Crabbe), amongst other things.

Oh and wasn't Marine Boy the one with some sort of special chewing gum to allow him to breather underwater?
