l've got a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye watching this and l'm a 70 year old pensioner who watched this as a toddler with my late lovely mum and baby brother in the late 50's .
Me too 😢
Same here!
Me too watched with my lovely Nan
I used to cry when Andy Pandy show finished and Mum would say..never mind he will be here again soon..
Innocent days..I was well loved and very happy as a little girl...
Miss my Mum..I'm 64..💖
I'm 64 too. Very happy childhood, lovely parents. Makes it so hard to live in this scary, violent, scam-filled, dishonest world now. I yearn for those winter days, with the deep snow outside, a roaring coal fire going in the grate, a little pile of 'things to make' kits that l got for Christmas, waiting to be done, and Watch with Mother on the tv. May be the lovely memories make it easier to cope with today's madness.
@@myapinion7532 I loved my Bunty annual etc , twinkle was first comic I got and upgraded to the Bunty , Judy etc , I would still bring them out years later , my brother got commando booklet , wish I had kept them too ,
Time to go home, time to go home...
Me too sweetie 😢
Me too. I truly believe we were the last "children". There was genuine innocence and real privacy. We were encouraged to learn and explore ( safely). We were trusted. I'm so eternally grateful for my 60's childhood. Those precious memories have sustained me through the years. I would give anything to have one more day back there.......
How lovely to see this again, brings back wonderful memories. Such an innocent time.
Absolutely priceless
Yes it was it not no more is it great times 😢😂😂❤❤
Andy Pandy and little weed,loved it,now 68 years old❤
Andy Pandy was always my favourite watch with mother programme. Primitive it might be by today's standards, but I love it still.
I used to watch when I was little, I an 76 now and remember it well as if it was yesterday.
The same age,..carefree days gone forever.
And my then parents where so young I remember , long gone they are now, but gor the best ,I wouldvhate them to see enhland now😢
That time to go home song used to make me cry when I was very young. Innocent times. Not anymore unfortunately.
Made me cry too, when I was 3!
TBH I Don't Blame You, It Does Sound Quite Sad
Yes me to when I heard it it felt strange ,I wish I could go home to my childhood😢😢
That flower opening at the beginning takes me back to happy times
I loved watching these shows back in the 1950s...I recall Bill and Ben, Rag, tag and bobtail, Sooty and The Woodentops....so very innocent and entertaining for kids. Life was very good in those days for children.
We have been so lucky
Oh, how I loved Teddy❤., innocent days, thank goodness for RUclips., Enjoy today., the time goes so fast.,
From watching Andy Pandy to being 65., went by in a flash...❤❤❤
I can always remember watching Andy Pandy in my childhood from 5 years and up on our Black and White TV. Priceless!!!
😅Wonderful! I loved Watch with Mother when I was young...now I love the costumes,beautiful characters and the narrator's voice...oh and the very talented puppeteers! Andy Pandy,Teddy bear and Loubby Lou with a cup of cocoa at bedtime is pure bliss!
On hearing that opening theme tune, the hairs stood up on the back of my neck and I was transported back into the 1960's, snuggled up to my mum safe and warm. An age of innocence, totally free from the adult neuroses and angst associated with a lot of kids programmes today. Such a great shame that children aren't allowed to be just that any more.
I wish I had that relationship with my mother growing up in the 80s and 90s. And beyond. But I did with my dad. My mother was violent and neglectful abusive.
But you made me think of the what ifs.
I loved watching these programs as a child in the 1950s...such innocence has unfortunately been lost.
I stumbled across this video. What lovely memories of watching my favourite Watch with Mother.
A blast from my past loved watch with mother
Such wonderful memories. Thank you.
Loved Andy Pandy, cried when they sang Time to Go Home, Mum would cuddle me and say Andy Pandy and his friends will come back soon...Oh how I miss those blissful times and my lovely Mum....💞
I am 63. I remember this . I also loved Hectors House, and Magic Roundabout, which was always aired before the news. How fast time flies..
Im 48 and watching this with me mum is one of my earliest memories, sadly she lost a battle with cancer a few years ago. As the opening credits came on i had tears steaming down my face. Thanks mum for sitting and watching this with me, i miss ya xx
Naww, I feel you. Terribly sorry for your loss.
Arsenal Thanks for that its much appreciated :)
Heartwarming
+PissedShagnasty My earliest memories too, funny what we can remember so very young. I watched this with my Mother also. Sorry for your loss.
+PissedShagnasty I know the feeling, I get that too with these earliest of childhood memories. There are times when it makes me laugh, but then...I'm not laughing any more. Memories are incredibly powerful!
I am from the US and was born in November of 1956. This is so innocent. My first experience with Andy Pandy was with my youngest son who I had when I was 45 years old in 2002. When he was 3 there was a newer version of Andy Pandy on the BBC as part of our cable package. I adored the show and so did he. He is almost 19 now. My oldest sons are almost 39 and 35. I also have 3 grandchildren who are almost 4, 3 and 3 months. I hope to share this with them.
I’m 70 I watched Andy Pandy at my Grandmas, as we didn’t have a TV.
I liked Looby Lou as she was mischievous, the time to go home song triggered memories. Thanks for this 😎
I still sing Time to go home when I’m finishing work .
Time goes far too quickly 😔
I want to cry OH MY GOODNESS I had forgotten WOW thank You beautiful people for uploading these wonderful memories
I was seven years of age now I'm 71 the time has gone like a blink of an eye so if you are young live live live like no tomorrow
I was 4 then and now 68. Yvonne is right.
I'm 13 and this is still freakin nostalgic lmao
Time flys sad but true xx I'm 61 Christmas xx
I won't remember this from 1952, but watching this brings back happy memories, and yes, just what happened to all the years in between? I'm now 64.
@@zeldaclements1617 Happy Birthday for then.
I used to wish the tv would swallow me up so I could be in Andy Pandy's garden. It just seemed so magical and was nicer than listening to mum and dad argue all the time. My nick name was Looby my brothers still call me it...I'm 66 now!! It was good being able to escape to that magical world, even if it was only for a short time...happier times and such innocence back then. I feel sorry for children...there is no innocence now!!
Beautifully spoken, innocent, and charming; how children's television should be.
agreed 😁👍
corinthian yeah ignoring the fact that there is nothing innocent in this world.But true though.I can't imagine a 3 year old saying f#ck.Actually i did hear that.
EXACTLY.
I used to watch Bagpuss when I was tiny and then we’d watch Watership down. I think children need both innocent and gritty things growing up, I’m certainly glad for both!
Agreed
I’m 19 , my dad showed me this growing up . My 1 year old daughter now watches it
Nostalgic.. and beautifully created for our heritage..
I remember sitting in front of a coal fire on a stool watching this with my mummy ! Must have been about 3-4 years old ! I am now 70 ! You never forget these things !
Yes, you've hit it on the head. Wonderful innocent times. Looking back and remembering grandparents now long gone. It's reduced me to tears many many times. Cheers, lolly.
Gosh this brings back memories, so lucky to have them, thank you ❤
I’m 70 years old this was my favourite,how wonderful life was back then
Great memories of Andy Pandy I watched it at home before starting school, I remember my mum preparing my lunch. Happy inocent days with no worries ❤ ××× 🍪pocket.
My darling Andy Pandy! I was so lost when they stopped airing this show. I MISSED HIM SO MUCH THANK YOU INTERNET! Xxx
Awwwww - This really is a taste of nostalgia and I’m quite tearful right now. I’m 76 years of age and still miss my dear Mum, with whom I always sat snuggled up to on the sofa when I was small child in the early 1950’s. Oh how times have changed. There can’t be many children snuggling up with their mums watching T.V. in these days of modern technology. All looking at their iPads, tablets and mobile phones (mums and kids)!
I used to watch this in late 60's or early 70's with my mum, so I was really glad to see this today! Thank you for posting it.
But watching it now with grown up modern eyes...
How come Andy Pandy and Teddy get do mostly what they want, while Looby Loo has to do what she's told and be in the pram, when she's quite capable of walking, dancing, etc?
Lol... different times indeed but still fun. Love all the little songs too
Boy I am nearly 71yrs old, and can still recall watching, watch with mother, Bill and Ben, The Wooden Tops, with Spot the dog, and of Andy Pandy, Looby Loo and of course Teddy.
Omg how I loved to watch Andy pandy and bill and Ben the flower pot men amazing I'm full of happiness best times of my life being at home with my mum watching these brilliance!
I'm 64 and remember watching this and Bill and Ben, romper room,the wooden tops ect..Happy days and great memories.
Well, I'm 63 this year and I do remember this episode! I've sent the link to my daughter who lives in the States and has a 3-year-old daughter. Hopefully, the vid will play for her in the States - I know the wee one will enjoy Andy Pandy! I do love the presenter's voice - very posh but it has such a nice tone. Very rare to hear a nice tv/radio voice these days - screechy, nasal twangs seem to be the preferred choice!
16 Sept 1952 I would be exactly two months old. I remember watching Watch with Mother as a toddler in the 1950’s. Happy memories of my mum.
I was born in 1997 and when I went to my grandmothers as a child, she had the classic Andy Pandy recorded on VCR tapes. I loved watching them :)
@dell am UK thank you angel I needed thT
So many memories come flooding back to me as I watch this. I'm going to burst into tears any second now.
I did...
Me too !
Oh the happy days of a fifties childhood. We were such innocent children and felt safe and sound from the nasty world outside.
Actually, the world outside wasn't quite so nasty back then.
Back in the U.K. mum and dad bought a TV in 1953, and my fave shows were Andy Pandy, Bill and Ben and the Woodentops etc...so very very innocent.
Well unless you were black hahaha
@@lezzman it was VERY nasty for minorities. It wasn't too pretty inside either for kids being beaten and molested by "uncles" for Christ's sake
But I think at the same time many things went unreported.
Lots of Whiskey Drinking dad's back then
Happy Memories,loved Andy Pandy ❤ time to go home, time to go home Andy Pandy is waving goodbye 🤗
My mum died last year aged 93, from the date at the beginning she would have been 22 when Andy Pandy first aired. I can remember all of the watch with mother programs my favourite was picture book on Monday.
When I watch this I just think to myself how wonderful some of the childrens' programmes were then. I'm sure my grandson would love Andy Pandy even in this day and age. Feeling quite chuffed as I've just discovered that I was born on Andy's birthday but in a different year - 1957!!! Brings back lovely memories.
Omg makes me feel so old but that was innocence kids were kids free to play any where so glad grew up in this era🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈
Im bringing this back in 2019 if you have the same account your welcome
Me too, kids used their inocent imagination also felt free & safe playing out, back in the day. You would watch your favourite tv kids telly programme after school then play out until your mum called you in for tea time. A bath & hair washed on a Sunday night ready for school for the week. Homework had to be done at the kitchen table... Such happy memories I am 58yrs old now & still remember all my favourite cartoons & watch with mother children's tv programmes. Do you remember Bagpuss? I loved it.... 🍪pocket uk.
What children need today is program like this cause - look at children nowadays! Are they happy? What have parents done with their children? Look! Look and learn! Save your children!
I was 6 when this started we had a tv so all the childrwn in our street would come and watch.they where good days when people were nicer to each other and life was softer hence children had a childhood they dont today!!
Your words are so true!!
Children have a childhood today! Just because it’s different to yours doesn’t mean it’s bad!
@@misplacedkiwi9498 my lil bro is 12 and he's glued to the tablet. It's shit.
@@Darkest_matter I think they mean toddlers
Oh for the days when the question "Andy Pandy likes swinging, don't you?" was a totally innocent question!
+Carol Willo Muffin the Mule. !!!
Exactly!
hahaha ;-)
Sad but Lol :)
Still do like swinging even in my 30s. We have fog here due to bonfire night I believe. And the park gate door late at night was still open wide I was tempted to swing in the fog.
❤❤❤❤❤ Lovely to hear a GOOD ENGLISH ACCENT ....That's looong GONE ....😔😔😪😪
"Watch With Mother"
Long ago and far away
A little boy came round to play
He brought a doll, he brought a bear
And wore a hat to hide his hair.
I let him in and closed the door
It felt like we had met before
We hopped and skipped and jumped around
A childhood friend at last I'd found.
We watched the telly with a smile
And watched with Mother for a while
The Woodentops seemed real back then
Like Rag, Tag, Bobtail, Bill and Ben.
When teatime came he took a chair
And sat between the doll and bear
As time went by they fell asleep
The sun had set for hide-and-seek.
I later found a Picture Book
And stepped inside to take a look
One picture really caught my eye
The one in which he waved goodbye.
But, oh, what joy we had that day
When Andy Pandy came to play
For he was real, and Teddy too
And so, it seems, was Looby Loo.
Beautiful poem
Brilliant ❤
Brilliant wish programs were like this now for the youngsters
What people tend to forget is although this started in 1952 in England, not many people owned a television.
Well, I watched it. Over the road !
You know, they had it in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland as well! It’s called the UNITED Kingdom! England is one part of that, not a separate country! ( and I was born in England just before someone moans, bloody Welsh, Irish or Scot!)
@@ianmedium It must have been repeatedly shown as we didn't get a telly until the early 60s and l watched it in those years. 😊 l live in Northern Ireland.
@@ianmedium Thank you 🌷😊
From a Scots lady :-)
Well said as a Scot I find it very ignorant people just saying England as the the other countries of the UK didn't exist just England@@ianmedium
I was 6, watched crossed legged in front of the screen, ,. still here.
God your old! This is 1952, you was 6 so you was born in 1946........... So you are 74 now
@@jamesquinn3715 Yes James Quinn. I am 74. but not burnt out. Do not have a preconceived idea of age.
My dad would have been 10 when he watched this he would tells us about it as children.
Wow! I´m 62 (from 1953) and I watched this at four, when we got a TV at home. I recognize most of it - and I especially liked the turning boxes with letters. My granny made me a Looby Lou doll - as big as myself. I just read, that the narrator was Vera McKechnie(born 1929).
+mette holm = I wonder if she's any relation to Annette Crosbie (Victor Meldew's wife) as their voices are identical.
I also watched this with my Mum when i was 4-5 years old,Im now 64
mette holm mette holm gigidy
Was anyone confused about Andy having a boys name but dressed like a girl.very confusing to a four year old and at sixty two I'm still non the wiser.
I guess she must of been born round 1930s :-)
This episode made me shed a tear - i'm in my mid 50's but my Dad used to sing 'Round & Round The Garden" and also "Baby Bunting" - to me at few months old.. swaying around with me in his arms. He died when i was a teenager, but have sweet memories... I love n miss you Daddy. Xxx
True. It's so nice 2 see Andy pandy again. I'm 76 now.but so nice 2 see it again. Thanks. Dawne Foulds👍
First broadcast when I was one week old. Monday was Picture Book, Tuesday Andy Pandy, Wednesday Bill & Ben, Thursday Rag, Tag & Bobtail. Finally Friday was Woodentops. A golden era.
This brings back so many memories, used to watch it with my mum and younger sister the other 6 siblings were at school, I to had a lovely upbringing, very happy, I’m miss all the people that are not around today to see this resurface, classic gold, thank you for sharing ❤️
Even though I am only fifteen my mum used to have this in video and I used to watch it all the time
I loved it.
I used to have a collection of really old children's VHS tapes which I would watch all the time when I was small. If I had this on tape, I would have absolutely loved it! This IS what children's programs should be like these days!
Pikapewpew lucky
I had this on VHS and I loved it!
I found it on tape in a charity shop a few years ago and bought it to show my grandson, at the time he would have been about six. Absolutely no interest, he kept looking at his phone screen, soldiers killing things or something on a game his mate was sending to him. Kids today are like teenagers.
100 per cent agreed
Ahhh the Watch With Mother VHS's made my childhood
_I loved listening to her voice, I'd literally fall asleep to this on video on my old video player as a young child..._
It's made my day to see this. Happy, Happy memories of a time gone by! I remember all his little friends too! We didn't know what was coming to us did we?!
I was 2 years old when this came out. Watching on a black and white T.V. in the afternoons with the curtains closed and, sitting on my Mother`s lap. Innocent days.
I saw this as a kid, and hoped that one day I would grow up to be like Andy Pandy.
I loved this and Bill Ben and Little Weed, such innocent times. Im 66 now, miss Mum
I loved the andy pandy show when I was a child it was on at lunchtime and we always had a sleep after 😊such good memories thank you ❤
I was born in 1951 and remember this well . Looking now I can marvel at the superb control of the puppets how oddly these programmes were so educational for the young minds . The opening title letters combined with the Andy Pandy picture must have impressed in children the shapes of letters . Friendships between the characters is emphasised ( unlike modern stuff) and the narrator speaks politely to the character asking it's choices teaching children to think for themselves.
Andy is the first character I remember from television...I probably saw this on a 14-inch television around 1957. (Sweden was a bit behind with television...)
It´s a well made show for it´s time...though some of kids today may be scared of the monochrome image...Thanks for showing!
Lovly to this aqain one of my favourites when I was a little girl thankyou for showing aqain ❤️😊
Happy memories, use to watch it with my mother,miss her so much,❤
My first television memory is of Andy Pandy around 1961. Watching now as an adult I am admiring the very skilled puppetry. We had a huge laundry basket at home and I remember my sister and I climbing into it and singing "time to go home". I was Andy Pandy and she was Teddy.
The little song 'Time to go home' always made me cry. Many a secret tear l had to hide. 😢😃
The narrator is too funny, she has so much enthusiasm haha
I used to run home with my mum from dropping my brother off at school to watch this. Happy happy memories
I had the video and used to watch it all the time. Loved it and still do. Watching it is bringing back memories.
I am 25 btw haha
bringing back memories lovely to see them again
Aww I loved Andy Pandy when I was a kid ❤
I had this on tape watched it every weekend at my grans
it is always the privilege of the present to idolise the past, but perhaps it really was a far safer and better time than. innocence is such a precious and beautiful thing, it's such a shame we tend to lose it as one gets older, it's a pity, that for some, it isn't replaced with wisdom.
Think I've just realised where my passion for gardening came from :)
What a lovely voice for such charming text. I imagine she began her career on radio with the same type of program.
I remember seeing this show on the ABC my brother use to watch it along with Bill andBen flowerpot men and the pinky and perky show. What a simple and innocent time.
19 years old and was a watch with mother baby. And so will my future kids be :)
I'm 18 but possibly the best thing my parents ever did was get me to watch this when I was a kid
omg I'm 18 too and I used to watch all the watch with mother shows!
millme
+Jim Lynn huh
priceless memories..of when i was young...Andy Pandy
Nostalgic!
I was born in the 80s. My mum found a Watch With Mother VHS one day and I'd watch it over and over. I loved Andy Pandy and Weeeeeed/Bill & Ben the best. My mum would've been 5 when this was originally aired, about the age she introduced me to it. Thank goodness for RUclips!
Just wonderful! Many thanks….
Growing up my nana told me about this show she watched when she was a kid I'm so happy I found this 💔😭 sadly she passed away to a battle of cancer in 2016 this remains important to me!
edit: I’m sat here with the biggest smile on my face telling my partner all about these shows.
o my god i feel old now ...., but it was good to see it again
I was born in 1988 but I watched this when I was a kid. My mum who loved it when she was little bought me the video. I loved it, so sweet!
Very evocative of my own childhood. The images and things children are exposed to nowadays must be terribly frightening for them.
I watched with mam,in 50,s lovely memories ❤
watching this show with my mom were some the best memories of my childhood
I remember watch with mother so well❤😂🎉😊
This came out 23 years before my parents were born. I have no clue how I ended up here but I gotta say I'm not disappointed at all
0:31 I've Used To Love Watching Andy Pandy When I Was A Kid. Classic. Thanks Mate. X
