Anyone else still watch cartoons?

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

DangerMouse was the one for me. Penfold was the b*ll*cks! But can you remember the name of Baron Greenback's Caterpillar?! (no googling!)

Post Tue Sep 02, 2003 6:22 pm

hmmmm.. the crow was called Stiletto, and he was black. the caterpillar was called Nero? because he was white?

while we're in TV nostalgia mode, if you remember the Magic Roundabout (original Serge Danot/Eric Thompson) can you recall the little digs Dougal used to get in, about Ted Heath or Harold Wilson usually, and how he often used to slag off the weathermen, which was funny because the weather was always on right afterwards!

I bow to your superior cartoon knowledge...Nero it was!

As for the Magic Roundabout, you have me stumped there, I was too prefixed on Dillan I think (which explains a few things in later life)

My friends bought me a Bod DVD for my birthday (what does this say about me?) which is still a giggle...but I get more enjoyment out of my Jamie and the Magic Torch collection!

Hey don't knock the Soot-master!

Is it me, or when you look back at Rainbow do you find that all of them are gay...a pink long-eyelashed male hippo who sleeps in a bed with a camp teddy bear and an orange gimp-like-thing...all of which are "best friends" with a softly spoken man called Geoffrey?

hmmmm....!!

Post Wed Sep 03, 2003 12:26 pm

whats wrong with the name Geoffrey ?
and no i dont talk to pink hippos even after a night out
next we will be discussing something like Rentaghost (i really wish i hadnt remembered that one)

Post Wed Sep 03, 2003 1:04 pm

why steel, have you got a mansion house that needs haunting?

George was def. gay. so was Bungle. Zippy wasn't, he was just a git. Geoffrey wasn't gay, he had a thing with Auntie Molly! And Rod, Jane and Freddy got up to all sorts!

do you remember the episode when right at the end during the credits Bungle was trying to get his head off and muttered "Chr*st it's f***ing hot in here!"
