- An hour and a bit of the CBBC afternoon programmes on BBC1 on 13/12/89, introduced by Andy Crane, and featuring: Animal Album, Touche Turtle, Paw Paws, Hartbeat, and part of Newsround.
Funny to think i almost certainly watched all of this live when it was broadcast. I often wonder with uploads like this whether there might be a new TV drama for example set in 1989 with this youtube video playing on a CRT TV in the background to pretend its still 1989. Thanks for the upload!
I wish there was more full afternoons of 80’s kids tv on RUclips.
Aaaaah....PAW PAW BEARS!!! ❤❤❤
Thanks for this!! ahh memories although we mainly had CITV on after school.... love tony heart though and morph
14:47 I remember Animal Album. Hartbeat and Byker Grove.
The first half of this video is a showcase of shows nobody remembers. CBBC can catch me out fairly easily, I'd only defect from CITV for the gold standard shows like Willy Fog, or Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles. But even as a dedicated CITV viewer, I see clips on here now of CITV which contain shows I must have watched, yet have a complete lack of memory for. Isn't it strange, how Andy understood Ed The Duck? Was the dialogue planned beforehand? Or did he just interpret on-the-fly? A skill I've long since lost, but I could honestly understand every single word Sweep spoke, on The Sooty Show. Second half of the video leads us into some vintage CBBC. Hart Beat was one of the greatest children's shows of all time, it had a nice, gentle, stillness to it. A mistake with modern kids' shows, is that they think everything has to be loud and obnoxious. Which has its place, sure. But not everything has to be like that. It's a pity that today's kids will never experience the mesmerising serenity of the original Postman Pat. And god forbid putting an aging gentleman like Tony Hart on a kids' show nowadays. That would _never_ happen.
Well, apart from Old Jacks Boat with Bernard Cribbins, and Grandparents in my Pocket with James Bolam!
I'm not sure if I agree that the entire first half is made up of shows no one remembers - The Paw-Paws was frequently repeated between the late 80s and early 90s, same as most Hanna-Barbera cartoons in those days... Touche Turtle And Dum-Dum was a cartoon hat was aired regularly from its inception in the early 60s (bearing in mind this was 1989) and continued to be frequently repeated into the 90s... I don't specifically remember the show Animal Album, although as I was 11 in 1989 it was too young for me anyway! 😂 I do remember there was often nature / animal-related programmes on for younger kids in that era (the only one I can remember off-hand was Caterpillar Trail, which my brother, who was only 6 in 1989, used to love)... HartBeat was a classic and one of the best programmes everx , Tony Hart always had a lovely air about him!
@@DaveAndBeth1978 I guess it all boils down to allegiance. I liked the more rough and tumble anarchy of CITV, where I found CBBC to be a bit twee. There were certain CBBC shows which I did switch over for, the real legendary stuff. I was no stranger to CBBC, but there are certainly many things I completely missed. I suppose that a lot of the CITV stuff I remember will be a mystery to a CBBC devotee.
Re: Edd the Duck. The guy operating him is sat on a chair just out of camera range (there's a clip on youtube somewhere where Andi Peters spontaneously tells someone to spin the camera and they spin it to Andi's left and directly past the bloke on the chair as Andi, presumably realising this, says 'No, not that way!'), so when Andy looks toward Edd he can also see the operater very close to him. It's therefore possible that the operator was mouthing the words along with each squeak so that Andy would know what Edd was saying.
@@MrDannyDetail That got me thinking. I hadn't considered that the puppeteer could, effectively, speak to the host. It's possible. But I'm just trying to imagine how Edd's quacking noises were produced, and I think it might have been done by blowing one of those duck-call kazoo type things. If so, that wouldn't allow the operator to mouth words. 50/50, it's possible depending on how the sound was made. Some time after I made that comment, I did see a behind-the-scenes video with Phillipa Forrester preparing a link alongside a woman crouching behind the desk to operate Edd. It seemed as though the woman wasn't used to doing the job, that she was just standing-in for that one link. She didn't seem sure of what to do, so Phillipa came up with the idea that Edd would faint because he was in love with someone she would mention, so that Edd wouldn't have to say anything. So maybe a lot of the dialogue was roughly pre-planned.
touche turtle (1962)
paw paws (1985)
Now I remember why I was freaked out by a yawning snail at the end of a credit sequence.
A distinct lack of Xmas decorations for December!
I'd like to open a disscussion on "The Paw Paw Bears", anyone?
I've enjoyed seeing a long run of CBBC here to see the shows and links. I very much watched the Andy Crane era but don't specifically remember Paw Paw Bears. The theme music which is absolutely banging IMO is vaguely familiar. I now think I likely jumped around on shows I didn't care for and switched over to CITV at such times. Wonder what was on the other side at this time?
@@BrooksterMax I remember watching andy crane but i only remember ed the duck as being with Andi peters, I watched allot of shows I wasn't interested in like teddy ruxpin and such, but have absolutely no memory of the Paw Paw bears existance. or any kids being into it.
Any more of these?
You don't see Andy Crane on television now do you
No, we hear him on the radio.
