    hahahaha unbelievable. days of innocence... [img]biggrinangel.gif[/img]

    btw, we also grew up on the Magic Roundabout :D



    The myths and facts ...

    • The Magic Roundabout ran from 1965 to 1977 on BBC1. When is was revived by Channel 4 in the '90s, all the voices were provided by Nigel Planer.

    • Magic Roundabout first aired in the U.K. on October 18th, 1965. Showing daily before the 5.55pm news, it attracted 8 million viewers at its peak.

    • Characters inspired urban myth that each was code for an illegal drug: Zebedee was linked with amphetamines, as was Brian the snail; Dylan seemed always stoned; Ermintrude munched on colourful flowers; while Dougal was linked to LSD, due to his diet of sugar and paranoia. The shaggy dog was modelled on comic Tony Hancock.

    • The show ran on the BBC for seven series, until 1977. It has been translated into 28 languages. A film, "Dougal And The Blue Cat", was released in 1972, while undiscovered French episodes aired on Channel 4 from 1992.

    • The Magic Roundabout is not just the name of a hellish Swindon traffic system, it's also the name of a nihilistic '60s European art movement.
