I have yet to find anyone who remembers Sara & Hoppity! I also loved Woodentops, Flowerpot Men and Andy Pandy. My sister liked Button Moon and Camberwick Green. She was a few years behind me!

I remember Torchy the Battery Boy. Think he would look a bit clunky nowadays.

Also remember Four Feather Falls, a puppet western starring Tex Tucker. There was a song in it- ā€œBig chief friend of two gun Tex- Kai -I-kalamakula- cum a Kai aā€ or something similar!

My sister and I loved it!

I'm of the Flowerpot Men and Muffin the Mule era GrannyIvy . I used to hurry home from school to listen to a radio serial called The Red Grass. My daughter really loved Catweazle.

Does anyone remember Sara & Hoppity? I loved this programme in the early 1960ā€™s. I even called my first born Sara! I saw an old You Tube of this yesterday and oh my goodness I found it a bit creepy but at 5 years old I adored it and never forgotten it. Another favourite was Torchy the Battery Boy. How childrens TV has moved on! I enjoy Peppa Pig and Fireman Sam now watching them with my grandchildrenšŸ˜‚
