Fat Bob has opened a can of worms. The very idea that a list of the best children's Tv shows should omit the Clangers is anathema to me. So. Nominations please. I'll work this out as I go, but we'll end up with a poll of some kind.
Give me your five favourites for now. Here are mine:
The Clangers
The Banana Splits
Battle of the Planets
Captain Pugwash
Mr Benn

See, now I was thinking along the lines of the Top 10 Coolest Cars Featured on Children's Shows:
1) The Batmobile
2) Fred Flintstone's foot-mobile
3) Scooby's psychadelic van
4) The Banana Splits' groovy dune buggy...

We didn't have TV when I was a kid -- and it wasn't THAT long ago!
