No, I think you'll find noddy was BBC and still running..gif "Smile")
No, I think you'll find noddy was BBC and still running.
So it was actually a puppet show.
well it wasn't the Clangers.( I love the Clangers, I have one) it wasn't Mr spoon. it wasn't Bag pus ( I have all the episodes to that)
I think they all had presenters and were later.
Having to do a process of elimination here.
I just can't think of any puppet shows in the late 50s
There were a couple of them on ITV and the original producers went on to bigger and better things.
Ok Well I'll have to sleep on it.
It's a little early for me so I have no idea - the only other puppet name I can think of is Twizzle.
And your thought would be right, did you get that because of the stretch clue?
Twizzle it was, originally made by Gerry anderson.
I never watched Twizzel. I have heard of it. I think the first Gerry Anderson I watched was Super Cars.
Ok. Next please ?
Actually, all I reall know of Twizzle is the name (with a vague picture in my head), and since the only other name I could remember was 'Torchy', and that definitely didn't fit with your clue is was a pure guess!!
How did twizzel fit the clue ?
The clue was stretch, this was what made Twizzle special, he could Twizzle (stretch) his arms and legs.
New Mystery Theme
Mystery TV Theme Tune 111
Yes well. We all knew that didn't we.?
It could be Jason King ?
I know it's not Department S

Ooh that's familiar... drama certainly.
...In fact I know that it was something that I really enjoyed... just have to stir the old greay cells a bit first. I also loved the music as much as the programme.
Hmmmm. Touch of john Barry there.
The Adventurer ?
Nope, not the adventurer and not Barry.
Vendetta ?
Nope, don't know that one.
It's a BBC TV series. John Barry's music. May not even be J B
I's on an LP right beside me.
Just a guess. I can't be bothered to play it , that would be cheating. Lol
Back to the drawing board.
It is familiar so one of us will get it...............Eventually
Could it be O S S.
No, not as old as that.
He he. I'm trying
Nero Wolf?
No, not that one either.
Time for a clue perhaps?
Yes please?.gif "Big Grin")
OK, one of the characters had no friends.
Lone ranger?
No. That was the overture to William Tell
Well it has to be lone some thing

The em that chap he was always running .
em the Harry O bloke. David Jensen fugative
The Fugitive ?
Nope, Richard Kimble made lots of friends along the way.
Oh alright then.
Well was it serious or UK or US ?
Serious, UK.
And by the way, a cracking series, perhaps a landmark for its genre.
The Invisible Man ?
No, not quite as old.
Randle and Hopkirk Deceased ?
Both of them had friends, so did all of the other people in the series.
No Can't be that was a higher pitch on a deferent instrument.
I don't know
So we have a serious UK drama series, with one of the characters who has no friends, add to it that one of the characters from later in the series is now in Emmerdale.
I don't watch Emmerdale or any of the soaps
I'm not doing very well am I
OK, the opening title scene involved a swinging light bulb and that's the last clue.
Oh I remember that........................vaguely
Burks Law ?
No, it was serious.
