They still show tales of the unexpected.

Do you mean budgie the little helicopter? Lol.

No program's I miss really, just think a lot of this tripe should be kicked off the tv and make some proper films/comedies, etc.

It was the same programme but the word ninja was deemed to violent for gentle British children lol.

On a similar note, the American "Top Cat" was called "Boss Cat" in the UK to prevent a clash with a brand of cat food, even though the other characters always called him "TC"!

I thought that until a few years back. They showed a program that was made around that time and it was called Ninja Turtles. Yet you could tell they had different makers because the artist and voices were different. Maybe the British made their own version and called it "Hero turtles" for that very reason.

Yep. I did get rather emotional at the end. Bit of trivia: Scott Bakula plays Jake Gyllenhall's character's father in the time looping film Source Code Nice QL reference there
