this used to frustrate me. He NEVER wished for the things you'd actually wish for (millions of pounds, world domination etc). Matter of fact, it still frustrates me. Grrr!!
I once had William's Wish Wellintons on 2 series. The first series had the blue video box and the second series had the one with the green video box. I once saw William's Wish Wellington's on a pirate video of the CBBC channel.
Why did my goddam wellies never do any of his shit!! My childhood was simultaniously brightened and destroyed by this show, I was forever weeping at the fact that my red wellies did jack all!
Can anyone help me? I've been trying to find a old TV show I used to watch as a child on CITV or CBBC. I can't remember the name but it was animated and something to do with wizards. There was some baddie called something like zorack and a ginger haired boy and a magic talking book. It's been bugging me for ages! Thanks :)
who remembers the episode where william wishes for everything to be made of sweets, and he eats too much and becomes really big and round. then once everything is back to normal, his mum gives him sweets after dinner and he turns green
@hannahlw1991 Yeah, I remember that episode. That episode from 'William's Wish Wellingtons' was called 'Sweet William.' I like the bit was when the old woman used a pin from her hat and poked William in the butt. Then I heard him yelling 'Yeow, my bottom!' I thought that bit was very hilarious and really funny. That was on BBC Toybox Number 5. I used to have those at my old house in Sheepfold Road. But now, I gave it away to some smaller children who needhelp with some teaching and some learning
Growing up I always though the lyrics were "When William will shine his wellingtons" instead of "when william puts on his wellingtons" must have been the accent as I was in australia.
There were so many great shows on TV back then, compared to nowadays we were spoiled. Or maybe big companies actually cared about what they were airing instead of profits...
this brings tears to my eye. i remember waking up in the morning as an infant and watching this whilst eating a bowl of frosties before going off to school/nursery. the days when life was so happy and simple. it's these sorts of programmes that shape us as who we are today. it is not just a programme, it is a priceless souvenir which my generation should treasure for the rest of their lives. (i'm 18)
After having to endure crap like 'In the night Garden' and 'Waybuloo' I am so glad to find all these old school kids programmes.... man TV has really gone down hill!
I wasn't particularly dissing the teletubbies. They're probably the best ones out of all the wierd not talking properly just being wierd kids T.V. shows. I mean they do at least talk properly a little bit. No I was just trying to make a point. I was about 10 when the teletubies were introduced.
Yeah anyway bring back classic kids T.V. instead of the wierdness that is on today!!
Cartoons used to be my favourite. There never used to be anything like Teletubbies when I was 2 - 3 years old. Why does there have to be so much of it now. It's just ridiculous.
I haven't seen this show in over 16 years, and a single note of the intro instantly makes me remember not only the whole intro's music, but the lyrics as well. That's how you know you've got a good intro...
I'm gonna make a DVD of all these awesome old shows and play them to my future kids instead of letting them watch all the new rubbish that's around nowadays. :)
The stuff they make these days does seem pretty rubbish. It's all about big blobs that can't talk properly and people in costumes and crazy slightly scary things like Lazy Town.
Whatever happened to cartoons? They were always great fun!!
