"Does anyone remember Jamie and The Magic Torch"

Ive got the first two series on DVD for 5.99.. And it so brings my childhood memories back.. The theme song was pure class. Ive been humming it all day! And been getting very strange looks.

For those who remember it, What are you opinions on it.

Try getting the 'Rhubarb and Custard' theme out of your head once it's lodged in there

n n n nuh, n n n nuh, n n n na na nuh etc......

One of the Flumps had a magnet in their back pocket and everytime they walked past the dining table, all the utensils would move!

Yeah Wordsworth had the cheesiest Cornish accesnt (The dog)

Trumpton and Camberwick Green gave me nightmares when I was a kid. Seriously. I've seen exactly 3 episodes overall, and even today I can't watch it without getting the fear. Magic Torch was decent, though the Policeman was a little unsettling. Mr Benn was another one that freaked me out (going into a changing room, then coming out somewhere else? No thanks. I even worked on a theory that Mr Benn was an allegorical story of mankind versus Satan. I was very stoned...), and the Moomins was the most beautiful but melancholy kids program when I were t'lad. Dr Snuggles was ace, but again somewhat freaky. Actually, all kids programs have an unpleasant streak to them...

Ah, my childhood comes rushing back when I think about Jamie and his torch ...

And his dog's name was Wordsworth.
