I don't remember her but I do also remember Barbara Kelly's husband, Bernard Braden

on What's my line was also a lady called Ghislaine Alexander

I am a real saddo. I can remember which Watch with Mother was on each day.
Monday was Picture Book
Tuesday Andy Pandy
Wednesday was The Flower Pot Men
Thursday Rag Tag and Bobtail
Friday was The Wooden Tops

The weekly panel on What's My Line were David Nixon, Isabel Barnett, Barbara Kelly and Gilbert Harding.

Does anyone else remember TV programme from the 60s Burke's Law starring Gene Barry as Amos Burke. I loved that, particularly the intro.

I should think that a modern poster/viewer done that.......

Welcome to the boards Charles

A rather old thread

Trying to find out more about a quiz on ITV (1960/61) called "Pencil and Paper

Was that The Movie Game?, hosted by Jonathan Morris? (Adrian Boswell from Bread fame!)!.

kb Was it "Screen Test"?

One more that's gone from our screens- Supermarket Sweep. I did enjoy that show. But then again I was only about 7. Couldn't tell the diffrence between what was good and what was bad.

Rag, Tag, and Bobtail Remember that quiz show in the 80s called Three Little Words. Can`t remember who hosted it. Contestants gave 3 one word clues to the winning word. What was that game where they were given 3 letters and had to make words with those letters in and in the right order. I remember one lady coming up with a very very long word, cant remember it, and even if I could, I couldnt spell it.

Viv That was a terrible programme, I hated it, we had to watch it my Dad liked the bloke who used to sing on it, I think he was Welsh, can't remember his name though. Another horrible programme was that Brian Ingles (is that the way you spell it) "All Our Yesterdays" my Dad insisted he had to watch this Second World War stuff, so I had to do without "Top of the Pops" as it was corrupting my mind that was after he heard me singing along to the Rollling Stones song "Let's spend the Night together" when I was very young and hadn't a clue what it was all about anyway. Those bad old days when they had that other awful programme "The Good Old Days" a take on the old Music Hall theme, it seemed to always have that Bl***y Danny La Rue on it and Max Wall yuck. Loved Andy Pandy, Bill & Ben and Woodentops, Trumpton etc., Pat x

Going a bit upmarket here. There used to be a classical music quiz type programme where the presenter had a 'dummy keyboard' and would 'play' a piece of classical music and the three contestants had to identify it. Think it was called 'Face the Music' on BBC2 in the 70's. Viv

Christine Telly Addicts.......that's it! Thanks :o) Told you my brain had worn out! LOL Sue

Was there a Mr Pastry?..

Yes my kids watched Andy Pandy, and wooden tops. True story: We were helping our friends move into a new house in Cornwall, about 1970 so were in our early thirties. Tony and John were fitting a carpet in the lounge, one at each end, the front door was open, Tony and John are 'playing' at wooden tops "Ooare spotty Dawg" and other suitable comments, both of them broad Devon accents. I happened to come out from the kitchen to find the baker (I think it was, a tradesman anyway), standing in the open doorway with his mouth open. He must have thought some very weird people had moved in there. Ann Glos
