I loved Bad Influence! from ITV back in the 1990's - It was a Video gaming show with Violet Berlin & Andy Crane (a Children's BBC broomcupboard Presenter, hmm Before Andy Peters or after??) .
On this show, You would get to see the latest Games being played, Reviews and Cheat Codes posted for your MegaDrive or Snes Games. There was this Guy who shared the cheats and he would say Hello slimy furtlers or scrotty furtlers LOL as in Slimy Techies
I loved this show and would record it every week on our VHS player!

So What was your favourite programme or Show growing up ?

A-Team I would say.

Bit older then Jeeves and Wooster

Ah Jeeves & wooster!

You can't go by what a girl says when she's giving you hell! It's like Shakespeare: sounds well enough, but it doesn't actually mean anything. LOL

Tomorrow's World

Red Dwarf for my teen years up. Earlier than that something like Crystal Maze probably stands out but could name loads of course.

Krypton factor was ace, They did a Re-make of it a few years, it was a flop. Not that many people watched it

Also Knight Rider, Manimal, Fall Guy - a lot of Glen A Larson shows were great. Lost in Space, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea too.

Thundercats, The Real Ghostbusters were my favourite cartoons.

Correct on both. Street hawk had one hell of a good intro/tune.
