Was browsing an online sale on Zavvi and saw a complete boxset of Round the Twist. Brings back memories. What shows did you watch as a child/young teen? |

Yes quite a bit older than 30. Used to watch on a wind up TV!

I used to like the theme tune to the Banana Splits! Rentaghost was one of my favourite kids programmes, though I doubt it'd get shown nowadays. Delicate little snowflakes would probably find it too weird/disturbing. |

I expect a lot of stuff would not get show actually, not "diverse" enough! They banned Tom and Jerry for being too violent! |

Ha, yeah. I remember a scene where Tom Cat was smoking a cigar, and people were up in arms about it because it "promotes smoking". I mean, WTF.. it's a CARTOON!!! What next.. are they going to ban SpongeBob Squarepants because it's dangerous to live at the bottom of the sea without having an oxygen mask on. Or BeepBeep the Roadrunner for running too fast without first having done a risk assessment. |

Tom and Jerry is still on I think but it's a remake so probably not as bad. They'd probably get in trouble for the black lady nowadays. |
