[gf1001]

Jean is still with us and now lives in Birmingham according to her son. I hope Jean is well and happy we all loved you.....

[Mancunian6]

@gf1001 We certainly did ... oh boy I used to LOVE willy wombat .... I could do an impression of him which I could still do sometimes if I think nobody's watching. lol. Another programme they ought to bring back for today's generation of children. :)

[Joanw100]

I used to be their club and still have my badge.

[jackicampbell]

I thought it was Tinker and Tucker too. Also was in the club and had a woomerang boomerang!

[Hawkeye3001]

I had a boomerang too. Have a scar on my chin where it came back and stuck in. Wow - always thought it was tinker and tucker until now but we are talking 45 years ago or something like that.

[missjc09]

oh blimey i wondered if i would be able to find this ah used to love this

[MEADOWBUTTERCUP]

I joined their club when I was about 4 years old and I had a boomerang too!

[euronick61]

[MikeHudson65]

[bellalurcher]

Nobody I know can remember tis but they were my favourites - I still have a T&T annual believe it or not!

[billybishbosh]

Tingha and Tucker the two little bears! this takes me back somewhat!

[bonzo874]

[eric40076]

have nt seen this for years and years was a all time favorite when we were kids thank you very very much for putting this on loved willy wombat

[darrowby1972]

Well... it rhymed with Tingha & Tucker anyway... nudge nudge!

[GravityBoy72]

I was a member of the Tinger and Tucker club!!!

Oh happy days.

[Tacheesmum]

I joined the Tingha and Tucker club and they sent me a red plastic boomerang. I loved aunty Jean ....

[fazermanbill]

Loved Jean Morton, We used to change the words to the theme but can not repeat it. They began with F and F her. (we were only kids) x ;+)

[chunkybuster007]

What was that weird mason like movement and word at 0.34. aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!

[blagger56]

@chunkybuster007 That was the secret sign for the Tingha and Tucker club...

[blossy121]

Stupid evil koalar bears are bullying him :l

[christian2006morris]

What's very interesting is to listen to Jean Morton's accent and her whole demeanour, really. "Lavly", "doont yew tek enny nootice of thooose burrs" - since when have British TV presenters spoken like that?!?! From that point of view alone, these programmes would not be usable (even though they're in colour) because the cut-glarrs accent and manner of the presenters is, by what we watch today, so old fashioned.

[TheShmoo123]

Ahhhhhhh....Auntie jean

[affectionatepunch]

We called it fingha and fucka in my day...

[buddle31]

I always thought Willy Wombat was a bit of a wuss!

[grantzx]

Long Live Jean Morton

[Alembic25]

Jean opened the shopping precinct where I lived as a kid. And the Community Centre was opened by.......Anne Aston. Eeek!

[Cool2BCeltic]

So Tingha and Tucker had their own TV show? I can remember they were in a nursery comic I got as a wee lad which was called Pippin. The stories had them acting out famous nursery tales and I think they were a lot better than the TV show which you could never show to today's kids.

[TheDailyCrumb]

so good to see this....... yep im sad as well I still have a 45 yr old Koala called Tinga (my brother didnt look after tucker as well) he is worse for wear but my kids love him too..... and whats best of all is I emmigrated with my Koala to the land of his birth (well acutally thats probably hong kong or something but you know what I mean!!)

[irtelli]

was she in Crossroads? her name and face is quite famillar

[MEMPHIS10eta]

Tears In My Eyes, I Am Still Proud To Be A Member Of The Tingha & Tucker Fan Club I Remeber Meeting Auntie Jean Twice & Being Invited To See Them Live, I Have Lost my Little Red Boomerang, Anybody Still Got One, I Am 44 & My Goldfish Are Called Tingha & Tucker Call Me Sad If You Want I Still Am A Member Of The Tingha & Tucker Fan Club & Always Will Be

[Tuuber13]

Still got the boomerang, and would instantly recognise the sign of finger to forehead! Woomerang boomerang this is our sign........ Funny how some things never go away eh?

[kgriff65]

Wonderful stuff! Auntie Jean Morton is terrific. I seem to recall there being a kangeroo milkman who used to shout " Milko!" with a sort of yodel at the end,

[creepmag62]

I know you will all be pleased to hear I joined their club and still have the badge!!

[gf1001]

Thanks for this posting. oh how I remember this, Jean Morton I believe now lives in spain, she was always on the box in the 60s and 70s, as a presenter, Does anyone know how Jean is these days? Great memories.

[UID27117]

Oh I remember this, my Auntie bought me some cards for Christmas with the puppets on them, and bible stories on the back, this was a great show, I loved it

[eatmypies]

tears to my eyes such memories thank you

[qpr60]

Do you also remember an Australian show called The Enchanted House? In this house lived an elephant called Nellyphant, a giraffe called Tiny, and a kangaroo called Joe. It had a trumpet-based theme and was originally made in the late 50s, but our generation would have first seen it around the early 70s. Is there anyone else out there who can recall it?

[Cool2BCeltic]

I can remember it. It was also in another comic I got. But again I preferred the comics (and I'm a right bookworm nowadays).

[eatmypies]

[mluc16]

[rivernith]

I too was a member of the Tingha and Tucker club. It is one of my earliest childhood tv memories along with Andy Pandy and Bill and Ben.I was a big fan of Willie Wombat. Happy carefree times!

[HORVATH1962]

Thank you for posting this, Dear God i have tears in my eyes with the happy memories i have watching this with my late lamented granny. I was a T&T Club member and had the boomerang and badge. I still got the badge with me. Happy days :-)

[bigzebb]

i have vague memories of this, thx for putting it on !

yet another trip down memory lane courtesy of youtube !

[digitalbroadcaster]

Being nearly 44yrs old now, this is the first thing I ever remember on television as a small boy. I thought I remembered them living in a cave though and it being black and white? Or was it because we only had a B&W TV set? I've become very nostalgic in my latter years. Denial maybe? :o) Thanks for putting this on.

[nuthouseidiot]

Ithought i'd false memory syndrome.I used to watch this sunday evening instead of going to church.Lovely warm memories of the late 60's

[AidanLunn]
