    I know this is an old Story and most people won't see this comment, but I was born in the 70's and grew up watching Wonder World everyday, so much so that every fact that came out of my mouth such as "hey mum did you know....." she would ask, where did you learn that "Wonder World"
    I loved Wonder World, so I started a youtube channel called Wonder World and I even trademarked the name Wonder World after the original shows trademark ran out.
    my whole channel is based around small unique stories like what Wonder World the original did, so far I have had a lot of success and I hope it continues to grow, and help the name Wonder World live on.

      It ran from 1979 - so its 1980s. I know as I watched it from 79 to 87.

    Remember when Martin Bryant from Tasmania send a drawing of a massacre, Simon Townsend laughed so much that he cried. I didn't think it was funny. Humiliated on National Television 📺

    1982, because at the beginning of the clip I see the end of ATV10's Reach for The Stars Ident.

    It is so fortunate that all those weapons are now illegal in Australia. I don't know how anyone survived back in those days.

      You're right it originally was "Afternoon Delight" for the first few months but they thought they needed something a bit more upbeat so changed the theme.

      That song got turfed after about six weeks when the letters started rolling in and someone told Simon what the song meant.

    Hello, I wondered if someone has the details of this segment on martial arts, e.g. date, episode number, etc? I am looking for similar segment that was filmed in about 1982. It focused on Master Robert (Bob) Caputo and his martial art of Tang Soo Tao. It featured acupuncture too. Thanks in advance
