well the world cup is dull... so: I have just ordered Star Fleet X-Bomber on DVD to watch with my son. I remember being 5 or 6 and seeing episodes of it on a Saturday morning, and this site has brought it all back. I'm sure some of you will remember it or have this already (Paul, Mark), but it begs the question - what do you remember that no-one else does?

Back in my day, 737's didn't have high bypass turbofans.   This my nostalgia of childhood holidays.

 I've never met anybody who remembers these fantastic lollies. They were top notch.

You're both insane. Of all the puppet shows, that was the worst

And Star Fleet was the best. It had a plot arc. It had stand alone episodes, but also a great story. And Dai-X.

Terrahawks was a total embarrassment. I loved Stingray, Thunderbirds, Joe 90, etc but Terrahawks was too awful to watch.

You're putting Joe90 above Terrahawks?

Space Precinct had one redeeming feature:  Terrahawks had nothing at all to recommend it. Even the intro and theme tune were utter garbage, a cardinal sin for Anderson fans. Clicky

Yes Space Precinct was entertaining but it had a few flaws. The budget was clearly less than a tenner an episode.
