and the flashing blade..A badly dubbed french saga , later re dubbed as a spoof of it's self on saturday super store.

Oh god, yes, yes and yes (in that order). They bring memories of endless summer holidays flooding back. I could never understand White Horses, though. Didn't they run around in the Camargue and somehow solved crime?

I dont know. It was on for my sister. :lol:

here we go..

'The White Horses' followed the adventures of Julia, a fifteen-year old girl, played by Helga Anders, who leaves Belgrade to spend a holiday with her uncle Dimitri (Helmuth Schnider), on his stud farm where, with the help of head groom Hugo (Franz Muxeneder), he trains valuable white Lappizaners. In the opening story, Boris, one of the horses is stolen by gypsies who dye his white coat brown so that no one will recognise him. Julia and Hugo set off to find Boris and upon his recovery an affinity is formed between girl and horse thus setting the scene for the 12 hour-long adventures that followed.

Its all a tad kinky.

I think all the telly of my childhood has been covered.

Haven't seen Knightmare mentioned yet though?

Oh and the original Batman of course. I used to watch it every Saturday morning before catching the bus into Sheffield to look for crimes to solve. I had my costume on under my flared jeans and roll-neck sweater. My wife hated it.

That's a great shame. It's a truly classic theme - covered by zillions of garage bands of course plus the likes of the Who and the Jam.

I used to watch Knightmare. Not really a childhood TV memory, though, since it started the same year I got married!

Dont know if i missed it the thread somewhere, but what was the progamme a bit like crystal amze, with Moira Stewart where they had to cross a maze at the end or get zapped if they stood on the wrong square by aliens?

Black Beauty and Champion the Wonder Horse. Superb.
