In the 50s we didn't have a telly but we used to watch it when we went to friends' birthday parties. In the mid-50s there was "Bill and Ben the Flowerpot Men", "Larry the Lamb in Toy Town", "Rag, Tag and Bobtail", "Andy Pandy", "Muffin the Mule".... In the late 50s I remember watching "Mr. Ed", who was a talking horse. "Coronation Street" arrived about 1959, in black and white of course, with Ena Sharples, Elsie Tanner, etc.
