Originally posted by Allanc Who remembers Bonanza ? When the map catches fire, reminds me of a Vindaloo curry Yep, my favourite in this was 'Hoss' Cartwright played by Dan Blocker. Always managed to get into a fist fight with someone as I recall. Another western series I enjoyed was Wells Fargo starring Dale Robertson. Thought he had a great sounding voice. I remember going to Boston in the 90s and seeing a Wells Fargo office and was thrilled the company still existed. Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

The death of the lady from Grange Hill reminded me of Top of the Form. Geoffrey Wheeler asking questions to kids who probably also appeared on Ask the Family.

Rising Damp. I also liked It's a Knock Out, mainly for Eddy Waring's laugh. There was also a sports competition series called Superstars, I think.

I remember being astonished to see Malcolm Macdonald, Arsenal and Newcastle number 9, beating the flying Welsh and British Lions wing three-quarter, Gerald Davies, over 100 yards.

As a very young child i remember watching Bill and Ben, The Flowerpot Men. A few years later, Ivanhoe, with Roger Moore was a favourite In my teens it was That Was The Week That Was, The Likely Lads and Ready Steady Go My grandmother was hooked on wrestling with Kent Walton, I think it was, doing the commentary
