    Are you thinking of MASK (Mobile Armoured Strike Kommand), vehicles that kind of transformed to weapons platforms and so on.


    Other I remember;
    Gobots (Robo Machines)
    Transformers
    Your Mother Wouldn't like it
    Fonzy and the Happy Days gang. Watched this cartoon before ever seeing the origional Happy Days. I was really dissapointed the origional didn't have the dog in it. Never took to it because of that.:(

    BBC &/ UTV used to have some great dramas for kids,
    Chocky
    Under the Mountain
    Moondial
    The Box of Delights (still can't hear the carol "The First Noel" without getting the creeps.

    Loved the cartoon shows that they used to show on it. The Arabian Nights, Incredible Journey, Three Musketeers etc...

    Does anyone remember the Banana Spits episode where they go into a cartoon world, a bit like The Phantom Tolbooth?

    I remember watching a show on Sunday mornings, I think it was on the BBC during the 80s. It was about some english kids who lived/stayed with relatives in a big mansion(kinda looked like downton abbey) - possibly about the kids befriending some ghosts? Not sure exactly, I do remember it being a bit of a creepy show :) Anyone any ideas please?

    Was it this? Nobody's House I used to love it. :)

    Great guess but I don't think so mate. It was based in the british countryside more in the style of Worzel Gummidge/Black Beauty. Tbh, I vaguely remember it so my description could be completely wrong :o
