The question is "what did you watch when you was a nipper?" Not what children's programs did you watch?

I don't recall any "kids" programs from the 60's - do recall Playschool and Rainbow and Magic Roundabout from the 70's didn't really watch them though.

Most of us all watched the same things back then (Alias Smith and Jones - A-Team - Top of the Pops) and when they finished we all went out to play again - these days they don't go out to play like we did - but sit glued to a console, computer or TV!
