What about "torchy the battery boy" and "twizzle" the boy who could screw his legs out to make him taller.Both were puppets shows with all the strings showing
Then if I was lucky, I was treated to saturday morning at the pictures,I think it was sixpence but not sure, it was kids only. Flash Gordon, Roy Rodgers, Lone Ranger, Old Mother Riley and Kitty and lots more that have escaped my grey cells.

just done a search on you tube, it was watch with mother , that makes more sense, I cant believe I remember these, I was only three for some of the stuff transmitted, unless like today there were repeats. I was six for these transmissions though.



Torchy the Battery Boy (Episode 1 - part 1) - YouTube

Twizzle (1957) - "Twizzle and Footso" - YouTube


Watch with Mother - Rag, Tag and Bobtail (1957) pt 1 - YouTube
