    Tink - I remember Danger Mouse :lol: Good heavens, this is going back some years :eek: Ughh, I never really got into though I'm afraid...I'm not sure why, I just wasn't all that keen on it.

    Don't recall 'Trapdoor' - what was the show about?

    I do remember something called Knightmare though, which was this show where a group of 4 children/teenagers had to guide one of their team members through a virtual quest. I really loved it and thought it was the coolest thing at the time :) :lol: I think I used to daydream it was me going on the virtual quest! :eek: :lol:

    How can I explain 'Trapdoor', I don't really remember much from it apart from the monsters were like Pleistocene figures. According to my mum I used to really love the Skull figure. :lol: Anyway, I found a picture, you might recognise it. Trapdoor :D

    Oh my god I remember Knightmere. :lol: The poor dude doing the quest had like a tin hat on so he couldn't see where he was going. The other 4 were sitting watching him on telly, working out clues and would say things like '4 spaces to the left and forward 2 spaces’ to guide him/her through it. :eek: I used to love that show, although the presenter on the show used to creep me out a bit. :lol:

I remember watching these when I was growing up: Petticoat Junction, Bewitched(I so wanted Samantha to be my mom), I dream of Jeannie, Gilligan's Island, Batman, Soap, The Six Million Dollar Man, Bionic Woman, Star Trek Classic, Barnaby Jones, Vegas, Hart to Hart, Matt Houston, Three's Company, Too close for Comfort, Kate and Allie, Newhart, Space:1999, Different Strokes, The Facts of Life, Simon and Simon, Airwolf, Miami Vice, Buck Rogers, the original Battlestar Galactica, Nancy Drew/Hardy Boys, Growing Pains, Scooby Doo, Looney Tunes, The Pink Panther, etc, etc. I could go on and on, but I'll stop there for now. I watched entirely too much tv as a kid.
