Re: Saturday Morning TV

I remember television before Swapshop came along when I was eleven. Before that you were lucky if they showed Champion the Wonder Horse, the Flashing Blade, Belle and Sebastian. All of them foreign. and dubbed badly into English, followed by a public information film with that whiney cat Charlie.

Swapshop was a breath of fresh air, though we never got through on the telephone to swap anything. We used to turn over to watch Tiswas, which was sometimes funny, but not quite my cup of tea as a good Blue Peter badge holder, I found it a little crass.
