Cartoons
Duncan Wallace
I caught myself yesterday humming the theme tune to "80 Days Around The
World" cartoon and also caught myself thinking "In my day we 'ad real
cartoons... none of this eh-oh b*ll*ck$" and thought my my... how sad and
old I must be and I am only going on 21....
Anyone else out there remember a cool cartoon from their days as a kid and
the theme tune.
And I DON'T want to hear Dogtanian again that bloody tune is now stuck in
my sodding head and I can't STOP humming it!
Cheers

As we get older we are told to "grow up" and use our imagination less
This is true, it is reality.
Einstein said that without imagination knowlegde is useless
Socrates said that knowledge is paramount to the health of the health
-of the human soul
Therefore reality conspires against the health of the human soul...

Aaarrgghh.. now I've got both of them rattling around trying to form
some sort of contrapuntal symphony..

Hmm.. eh.. what??

I shouldn't think they bothered.. I mean.. did anyone watch more than
the first thirty or so episodes before being so bored that they
discovered something more interesting to do.. have you noticed that when
paint is drying that it starts simultaneously at the edges and the
centre of the painted area..
As for cartoons with great theme tunes.. Captain Pugwash.. Noggin the
Nog.. Ivor the Engine.. Chorlton and the Wheelies.. aahh.. that's
better.. they've driven out the 80 days and Dogtanian themes.....
ObNag: BTW guys.. watch the tagging and quoting or I'll moan at you.. it

Captain Pugwash, hmm I can remember watching that all young &
innocent like. Not realising all the names had other meanings...
Noggin the Nog, watchable - just
Ivor the Engine, watched as a goat but couldn`t watch 'em now.
Chorlton & the Wheelies erm err was this a cartoon? I always
thought it was stop motion animation!

They didn't.
The whole thing about the double entenres in the names
is just an urban myth.
We might have been just children, but the controllers of
the BBC weren't, they would have noticed.

Poignant obvervance. I remember that cartoon too. Yeah, they did in the end,
that Spanish man was with the two of them when they found it. I remember, it
was a rather spaced-out-trippy sort of ending, the City *was* pure gold and
also bloody enormous. It gave me rather heart-warming, vivid flash-backs

Of the cartoon of course. It was a pretty slick production as seen through
the eyes of a five-year-old you know! ;) Hang on .. perhaps those tapes of
the show that I still have lying around may have had something to do with
aforementioned 'flashbacks'. ;) hehe Oh well.

I can back this up. I have a book - The Book of Brilliant Hoaxes -
which says this isn't true but is a good myth since even people
that watched the program believe it.
This is a great book BTW, but I can't remember who its by :-(
It has a section about Victor Lewis-Smith who invented some
character for his radio show and ended up with this imaginary
person alledgedly getting into the Belgian(I think) Who's Who.
The entry states, among other things, that one of his children
is named Bobo Tampax Turdy - I can't believe they printed this.
Anyone see VL-S's TV Offal on Channel 4 - it was a bit icky but
very funny...but then maybe that's just my twisted sense of humour.

You mean "Master Bates" and "Seaman Staines" [1] don't conjure up

Um, note Gid's post said watch the *quoting* too. You've just posted a
follow-up which had no content at all in essence, except to completely
ignore what Gid just said. *Real* clever.
Now I could try be nice 'cos you've got finals, but so have I so I won't
:-) C'mon, it's not hard to think to yourself "Do ppl want to read this?
No? Then I won't post it".
If you do think it's worth posting,
a) trim any bits you're not directly replying to, in this case you'd only
leave the bit of Gid's post that I've left in above
b) Make your comments *below* the quoted text, it's far more
understandable then. (I know you did this, lots of other ppl haven't
been recently)
c) Only quote someone's sig if you're going to comment on it.
d) Be careful to make sure the tag in the subject line is still
appropriate, if not change it, and possibly the subject too.
e) Try and keep your post uder 75 characters wide, and your signature
under 80 character wide and preferably 4 or less lines long (though
I'll let people off with 5)
They're not really *difficult* rules to follow, and although they might
make it slightly slower for you to write your post you'll find that if
everyone follows them AFP will become *much* easier to read, for you as
well as for everyone else. The more you set a good example the more other
people will follow it too!
Good luck with your exam (and I hope it went well if you've already had
it!) I'm not trying to tell you to hedgehog off and stop bothering us,
just be a bit more thoughtful and suddenly you'll realise what a friendly
place AFP can be. If you're good I might even propose to you :-)

Yeah they did. Eventually (how sad am I to remember this?). And DT was
indeed cool, along with loads of other cartoons about which I remember
loads and loads. But not the names, which ends that line of discussion...

Erm. ok here's one that'll have you scratching your collective
heads..
Does anyone remember "Bod"
Must be around 15 odd years ago on BBC, there was this bod character,
and erm.. well, i don't recall much. There was another bloke called
Farmer Barley Mow, and they used to do a guessing game with the animal
characters involving milkshakes..
Sounds bizarre, but all true i assure you.
Remember the theme tune too, v catchy.

I think that proves that (a) my memory isn't what it used to be [1], (b)
I have a dirty mind [2], and (c) they thought about it and then applied
a version of the Dr Spooner treatment because they realised they
(probably) wouldn't get away with it...

not as if the apology adds any useful content, it only makes good OLFs

I don't know if it even has a theme tune and it's actually not even a cartoon
but I just discovered 'the morph files' are back on tv. It's the best
plasticine people show (one of them's alfoil, actually) I've seen(from the
same people as wallace & gromit). Today's episode was the one where he has a
pet nail brush, he even has a vaguely apple-ish computer (at least the
pictures on it's screen are, the keyboard's a typewriter). Anyway, sorry to
waste your time(and mine- I've still got a hundred posts to read and they're
going to disconnect me soon), I was excited.

You may be thinking of the original MORPH, where the characters
interact with the narrator.
THE MORPH FILES isn't nearly as good.
