That's who it was, Dee. Thank you … :-)

Raymond Francis was in No Hiding Place Joy, and yes Mike Baldwin was in it as well Libby Thanks everyone for all the memories ;-)))

Its odd how things bring back memories. It shows they (the memories) are still there albeit not easily accessible. Having reached three score years and more than 20, it would be interesting to be able to download and review the contents of one's head. len

Raymond Huntley, was it, in No Hiding Place? Yes, nostalgia is best just left as happy memories sometimes.

The Strip? A film with mickey rooney, I think, with a song called ' a kiss to build a dream on'' and what about the Talking Mule? Bob

My fave police drama was No Hiding Place - think Mike Baldwin x Corrie was the young copper. Don't really think I would like to see them again though - memories could be spoiled - probably awful acting. Libby x

The original Last of the Mohicans ? Chingachook?

Come over all sentimental on here............ What about Tonto, also Last of the Mohicans - you can tell my Dad was in charge of that knob (can I say that here?). Libby x

Oh, just remembered another programme that I liked: Champion the Wonder Horse! Champion the Wonder Horse! Like a streak of lightnin' flashin' cross the sky, Like the swiftest arrow whizzin' from a bow, Like a mighty cannonball he seems to fly. You'll hear about him ever'where you go. The time'll come when everyone will know The name of Champion the Wonder Horse!

Ed Byrnes as Kookie - yes!! . … :-)

77 Sunset Strip. - wow was that the one with Ed Byrnes as Kookie?? If so I am melting here ;-)) The street that wears a fancy label, That's glorified in song and fable. The most exciting people pass you by, Including a private eye. 77 Sunset Strip. (Three times) You'll meet the high brow and the hipster, The starlet and the phony tripster. You'll see most every kind of gal and guy, Including a private eye. 77 Sunset Strip. (Two times)

Couldn't forget Robin Hood with me about, could you cousin Tony ? ... :-) Now 77 Sunset Strip, that I do remember - can't remember their names though! They were good looking ...

Hi Tony The mention of Casey Jones has brought back memories, I had forgotten about him Casey Jones, he loved a locomotive. Casey Jones, a mighty man was he. Casey Jones run his final locomotive With the Cannonball Special on the old I.C. They don't make progarmmes like that any more do they?? ;-))

Hi Dee. Yes..i remember most of those. In Oz we had.. Sugar foot, The Untouchables, Lone Ranger, Casey Jones, Cisco Kid, Rifleman, Gunsmoke, Perry Mason, Lawman, Hawian Eye, 77 Sunset strip and then of course the Mickey mouse club.....and Robin Hood on a sunday night. Robin hood, Robin Hood riding through the glen. Robin hood, Robin Hood with his merry men. Feared by the bad, loved by the good Robin hood, Robin hood, Robin hood. Geeeeez....Now i am feeling old Tony Oz....:>))))

Hi Lin Yes I remember Rin Tin Tin, that was good Torchy was from the Gerry Anderson 'stable' and somewhere on this thread there is the addy of the site which has all the info on his animations Dee ;-))) ps, found it http://www.whirligig-tv(.)co(.)uk/tv/children/gerrya/gerrya.htm pure nostalgia ;-))

Hi Len That Leigh Hunt poem about The Glove and the Lions makes interesting reading ;-))))

All the foregoing brings to my mind part of a ditty about a lass who dropped her glove in a rather dangerous spot, to show off her love's prowess: The leap was quick, return was quick He lightly gained his place. Then threw the glove But not with love Right in his lady's face. Surely not Robin? len

Musn't forget Davy Crockett, must we ;-))) yes Keith, I think that was the name we were looking for ealier , TY ;-))

I THINK THE NAME YOUR LOOKING FOR IS Conrad Phillips

oh dear - was it THAT long ago?? William Tell, Robin Hood, Torchie, The Lone Ranger, What about Casey Jones?? Just seems like yesterday and we didn't even own a TV!!! There was only one TV in our neighbourhood (three doors down) and we used to hope to be invited to come and watch each afternoon. maybe that's why they made such an impression!!! Vonny
