A couple of people who currently act in Coronation Street were in Children's Ward, who are they?

Emu's pink windmill show I believe. Guess they haven't got the rights to show some shows then. Missing Chorlton & the wheelies...

I've got Dangermouse and Count Duckula boxsets so this weekender isn't that appealing bar Rainbow.

The virtual reality looked good back then, imagine what they could do now if it was still on the air

Gutted to miss this as were away and forgot to set the PVR. May have to go and have a hunt on YouTube, although I think Challenge(?) were showing Knightmare not so long ago

Remember as a kid going to see the Rod Hull and Emu show at the local theatre and being terrified of Grotbags!

Grotbags was played by Carol Lee Scott, one of her other talents was boogey woogie piano playing and she was very good.

An aquaintance of mine from many years ago.
