ahhh, it evokes memories of my childhood in the 60's...gingham tablecloth's, picket fences, belfast sinks..Summers so warm you walked around topless (like Mrs. Woodentop) ; D

Who needs the animated ' digital ' computer-created childrens programmes of today? This is just timeless, thanks.

@BritNostalgia Me too! I was born in 1963 as well and I remember watching these. :)

This may look incredibly cheesey nowadays but this was real entertainment. I love heartwarming stories like these. :)
-
Look! A proper family. You don't see that on TV much nowadays.

Wooden Tops was the one I couldn't stand as a 4 yr old. I can remember sulking when it came on. Watching it now... I reminds me of the pre-curser to 'Darling Buds of May'. Nice to see it again - even though I didn't appreciate them at the time lol

I remember this one, but it was made 4 years before I was born. Surely I wasn't watching a repeat ! Would have complained to Robert Robinson if I'd known.

@howler95uk You certainly were watching a repeat! I remember these too - and I was born in 1963!

@TheShotgunslade Strangely enough, it would seem that The Woodentops have fared much better than Dr. Who. I'm not certain, but I think most of The Woodentops episodes survive in the BBC's vaults - unlike Dr. Who - who's biggest enemy was not The Daleks or The Cybermen or any of the other weird and wonderful baddies he encountered - it was the BBC themselves!

This was made when tv was new and so was I! Sadly, the peaceful, polite and cultured England reflected in this programme and which I remember from my childhood has vanished for ever - I don't recognise this country any more. Oh well ... thanks for posting.
