Hi Lynn, I remember in the 50's. It was: Monday: Watch with mother (Muffin the Mule) Tuesday: Andy Pandy Wednesday: Bill and Ben Thursday: Rag, Tag, and Bobtail Friday: The Woodentops. Loved them all, but I think I liked Rag, Tag and Bobtail best, After that I remember Hammy the Hamster (Tales of the Riverbank) amongst a lot of others. He was very clever and even had a speedboat!

do you remember! Emu's All Live Pink Windmill Show my daughter was in the stage show. Emu's All Live Pink Windmill Show Emu's Pink Windmill ShowEmu's All Live Pink Windmill Show was an anarchic British television Children's ITV series of the 1980s featuring star Rod Hull and his demented puppet, Emu. The premise of the show was simple: each week a green witch Grotbags (played by the singer and comedienne Carol Lee Scott) threatened and tried to steal Hull's aggressive arm length puppett Emu so that once captured (in Carol Lee Scott's own words) she would be able to use its 'special powers' to control all the 'brats' in the world. The format, which also featured viewer phone-ins, as well as a segment in Grotbags' grotto where selected members of the audience were offered the chance to win prizes and lots of singing and dancing, achieved enormous popularity during its early years and is probably now most fondly remembered for Rod Hull's catchphrase 'There's somebody at the door, there's somebody at the door' every time a visitor knocked at the Pink Windmill's entrance. The series first aired in 1983 and was televised live having replaced Hull's (by that time) defunct Emu's world series. A second series which followed in 1984 was also broadcast live. Thereafter, the series was pre-recorded until eventually being cancelled in 1989 and aired simply as Emu's Pink Windmill Show.
