I used to watch the same as R1cho, loved those programs! I spent more time though building things and drawing etc. we lived bang next door to a fairly private wood that speperated us from a cemetary, so I spent a lot of time playing in there (acting like He-Man or Thundercats of course!)

Space Patrol, I barely recall this but all I remember is " Gamma rays on, betta waves on", just before this shiny bottle top of a silver space ship took off.

In my early days there were only 2 channels and we rented the TV from "Red Arrow" then I remember them converting the set to include BBC2, this was on UHF not VHF that the original 2 were on.
There was a huge handle on the side that went clunk and you had to have 2 aerials, a H shaped aerial for VHF and the conventional aerial for UHF.

Black and white of course, and the white dot in the centre of the screen when you turned it off. Just before the National anthem came on at 11:00pm.


I could list dozens more....:nenau

Old TV

When I first watched TV there was only BBC 1 and I remember stuff like.
Crackerjack.
Fabian of the Yard
Rawhide
The Lone Ranger
Bill and Ben the Flowerpot men & Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed.
Torchy the battery boy etc
ITV came a year or two later.
All in Black & White many years later came colour but my Parents could not afford the licence fee for colour or the sets so it was 1970 before we had Top of the Pops in colour !
