Do you have any clips of Motormouth? I remember a human-sized version of the game Mousetrap which I'd love to be reminded of!

[ratpackmanreturns]

I had the opening of one on the old channel, someone else has got several segments posted of the final episode, same one as I had recorded. I remember the mousetrap game aswell, fantastic.

[ratpackmanreturns]

I'll bare it in mind

do you have any clips of Phillipa Forrester getting a custard pie in her face ?

[ratpackmanreturns]

Not that I can remember!

I bet most of the viewers on this didn't even know who Bart Simpson was - The Simpsons wasn't shown on terrestrial TV here in the UK till 1996!!!

I had just turned 2 when CBBC first started showing 'Brum'. And to think that it's 20 years old this year? That's mad, wish they'd release the classic Brum with Toyah Wilcox narrating on DVD, none of this over PC'ed rubbish that they've done to him now! Bring back Brum!

I remember watching the cbbc September new programmes line up, I would've been 7, seeing this made me want to throw up, tooo many memories, too many flooding back aghhh ! Oh yeah as we all know TV sucks now, thank fuck for youtube

[JMR83]

Whatever happened to Simon Parkin?

@AidanLunn

oh yeah. you're right. It was broadcast on Sky until that then. Simpsons was pretty popular though.. the merchandise, a No. 1 song in charts aswell

@TruthBeyond

lol, i was just about to say the same thing until i scrolled down and saw this. I imagine T2 had just come out seeing as this was from 1991, but still.. not for kiddies.

OMG

@blackdice23 yeah good point, those days apart from simpsons MTV and unheard of american comedies (later Premier League) SKY wasn't that great. SKY represented Thatcheritre materialism, more is better. BBC had programming quality over quantity of channels, and gave health people space and time to live outside the telly box. Which couch potato kids of the 2000s miss out on.
