Yes, Tinger and Tucker, sad to say I can remember the song too, 'woomerang boomerang ...' the lady was aunty Jean Morton and there was a fellow too, uncle Pat Astly ... I think !

I remember Topo Gigio - loved him as a child and still do..............by the way he is still going strong...........he often makes appearances on Italian tv childrens programmes. Unlike me he hasn't aged at all!!!!

Worked with a woman called Jean,me and my friend Maggi did not like her so she quickly became Auntie Jean, with an Aussie accent.
She never realised we were mimicking Tinger and Tucker and how they also took the mickey out of their presenter Auntie Jean.

You have all made my day..My family (kids & husband) think I'm mad. I have been on a web site that plays the film of the T & T members song...I have found pictures of Topo on a site too.. I was called willi wombat at school so I know I wasnt going mad...

Hi Dawnie! sorry i dont remember them myself then i'm abit younger than you i think 30's.My kids t.v was Trumpton,Andy Pandy,Mary mungo& midge Woodentops anyone remember them?

Oh yes they kept my children amused for me.
Saw the man resonsible for a lot of the puppetry ideas particularly Trumpton, Camberwick Green etc died last week.

Man, your just too young, baby baby...But not that young, as I use to watch trumpton when my dad use to call home for a cuppa half way through his work-shifts. Andy Pandy with Loopy lou & Teddy.... I've got Topo Gigio as my desk top background

Oh no Frexy, not Brian Cant? such a lovely man.

Used to love Willie Wombat and his slow way of drawling "Auntie Jeeean". So sweet. Now I remember where he came from. Thanks Dawn.

I was called willie Wombat because its quite like my madenname, but now you mention it, Willie had very slow, drawen out speach...Its funny how the memories come flooding back when given a nudge..

I didn't know people of your age knew how to use computers Dawn!Topo who?? Only joking Anyone remember Grange hill? now that was the programme to watch.Tucker jenkins &co

Oh Baby Baby, Come here let me change your nappie, You cheeky thing. Grange Hill, Tucker Jenkins- WHO! WHAT!!
(only joking, see you in the pub later)

Oh my gosh, I remember Tingha & Tucker and Willie Wombat. I remember having an Tingha & Tucker annual - I must have been quite young as my memories are pretty vague. Anyone know what year it was televised. I am 43 so reckon it was in the early 70's??? Anyone remember Twizzle whilst we are at it??? AH HAPPY DAYS..........

Oh yeh, whilst we are reminiscing about TV programmes, what were your favourite sweets when you were a kiddie that you cannot get hold of now? I used to love that sweet tobacco in the waxed red paper - remember it, some others I liked were Amazons, Swisskit (I think that was the name it was like a muesli type bar) Frys Fruit Creme (you used to get a different fruit creme in each section - oh yum) and Star Bars. Any other favourites that we want brought back???

Porka, I have an annual 1969...but i'm sure Twizzle was alot earler as my 58 yr old sister used to like it...I'm 45 by the way. I remember sweet tobacco, you can still by it at www.quarterof.co.uk

Hi Dawn, oh I must have been younger than I thought when it was televised. I wonder if they ever re-ran Twizzle as I remember the little person with the very long legs. Thanks for the tip about that site, I shall have a look now!

Sorry Porka, its www.aquarterof.co.uk

Not sure about the re-run of Twizzle, but i do remember long puppet legs on a black and white old t.v.

I loved the Wooden Tops - the very biggest spotted dog you ever did see!! Also loved Ragtag and Bobtail and Tails of the Riverbank Oh so sorry about Brian Cant, he did playschool when my daughter was little

What about Four Feather Falls, does anyone remember that. Tex Tucker with the magic feathers in his hat or am I just that old

At school we used to pretend to be the spotted dog using trainers (or plimsoles as they were called then!) as ears - weird behaviour...
What about The Ringing Singing Tree? or was it The Singing Ringing Tree? The fairytale with the dwarf and the princess? Anyone remember that? Does anyone know whether it's available on video/DVD? I'd love to get it for my daughter - before she's too old to appreciate it.

The only Ringing Singing Tree I can remember was a rip off version on The Fast Show a couple of years ago. It was hilarious . Anybody remember Pogle's Wood ?? I used to love it, but for the life of me can't remember what Pogle was or what he/she looked like.

Now how could I have forgotten the wondeful and colourful Care Bears. Even have all the movies.

I loved Topo Gigio, and I am also sooo sad about Brian Cant. He used to be on Playschool so was also part of my daughter's babyhood. wish there was a face for awww

All the movies blondie?

I'm very sorry, I realize now I posted at an earlier date, especially about Brian Cant, but I'd forgotten and didn't read the previous posts :so please forgive me... and carrry on with the wonderful memories of your childhood faves.
