[arobekie]

This programme was for working class kids,Hectors house and the magic roundabout,Was for middle class kids.

[alcockell]

@arobekie Hmm - I'd challenge that, considering that at least 2 of those programmes were aired in the same slot... on BBC1, just before the news.

[arobekie]

@alcockell Challenge what?what has being aired in the same slot got to do with whatever it is your challenging.

[GuildF40]

2 people have no soul

[sibeliandrift]

The greatest theme tune OF. ALL. TIME. Simple as.

[swiney007]

@sibeliandrift agreed!

[michaeln544able]

remember watching this when arriving home from work-it was on just before the bbc 1, 6pm news broadcast-was around 5 mins duration.i think it was year 1976 as well.

[alcockell]

@michaeln544able News was on at 5:40 back then.  That 5:35-5:40 slot was gold dust to producers. Roobarb, Perishers, Wombles, Ivor, Clangers, Paddington....

[peteymc100]

that song is an all time classic!

[RottonMemory]

Ok that's weirder than blue cheese

[meth71]

[GNeuman]

Gosh, they shake so much they must have Parkinson's

[The31415927]

RooBarb? Find your Byrds?

I'm trying my best not to set off a silo.

[The31415927]

Interlude and foreshadowing as to how easy this is going to be.

[itsmeJTke]

yay ^_^

[dmcd1969]

I think you'll find Grange Calveley was born in Cheshire England & Roobarb was based on his Welsh Border Collie and Custard on a fat cat that lived next door.

Bloody brilliant, the best cartoon duo ever!!

[lustreboy]

awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[stubbostubbs]

All us hairy arsed Paratroopers used to go like crazy from our foot patrols in Belfast and then race to the tv room to watch this.

[ElJeficitoTheSequal]

Howdy people, this is a brilliant cartoon and the fella behind it, Grange Calveley, an Aussie artist is soon to be on facebook and wishes to hear people's views of R and C, especially in Britain where it was hugely popular. There'll be a R and C fan page with links to Grange, so if anyone wants to let him know why it's such an enduring carttoon or maybe chat to the man himself, get on facebook. Cheers, all the best.

[tigerpaint1964]

" BRILLIANT"!!!!

[garethmurtagh]

Classic! Didn't somebody make a rave out of this in the early 90's?

[Squab1972]

Cool Theme tune takes me back to my childhood when kids TV was brilliant.

[Noodles37UK]

HEADBUTTIN!

[Gulftastic]

It's called 'Roobarb'! No 'Custrad'!

And I love the guitar in this.

[linebackertwo]

Jesus this takes me back to the bad old days of the 1970s. It looked liked someone was furiously rubbing a magic marker across the screen**==

[cookie123456789012]

compared to the new roobarb series this is 90000 time better

[MissPandora1967]

This song reminds me of the inside of my mind....any twopenny psychologists out theret .....go on try?/..lol

...great to see this again...however I have seen this prog,Bagpuss,The Clangers+The Banana Splits all of them on LSD a fair few times ...the Banana Splits won but the Rhoobarb theme tune is my fav!!

[ajpoolshark]

roobarb and custard = a legend of the cartoon world, the most manic intro to any tv show....lol

[cheffurn84]

Simply awesome.

[anthonyjthorne]

Probably the greatest song ever recorded by human hand.

[Mr1DanSmith]

This is how I feel about the world were it not for the twats from the council houses who put a fag in my mouth before I left the door.

[MrNodzilla]

That tunes right up there with rising damp

[beats0me]

i can still remeber watching this as a kid, back in the day when the world still had videos, and that theme has been stuck in my head ever since

i was always confused why Roobard percks up his ears in the intro, he never did in the show, so why does he do it in the intro?

[iAmRichiesLovebird]

awwh this reminds me of my dad 'cos he used to love this :D

[CockneyRebel1979]

I remember this from when I was a lad! Blimey, this makes me feel old! :/

[chipspaghetti]

To this day me and my friends still use this tune to describe anything that's shit. What a hoot we have!

[dariunas]

LOL - Listening to this after reading your comment - I can totally see why. I can't think of a more perfect tune for it. The filthy 'guitar' and farting synth suit the purpose well :D

[TheOnComingStorm121]

Hey Kids, Don't do drugs...Just watch Roobard N Custard for the same effect! :P

[earthstick]

@TheOnComingStorm121

Lol, I did a drug called roobard and custard.
