Welcome back to the podcast celebrating growing up as a child in 1970's Britain and the central part that television played in our lives.
In this episode we look at the plethora of American cartoons which filled in the gaps between homegrown fare on 70's kids TV. From the Wacky Races spin offs The Perils of Penelope Pitstop and Dastardly and Muttley to the cartoon incarnations of Laurel and Hardy we remember Hanna Barbera's second string shows. We look back on the Harlem Globetrotters cartoon show and explore the link between Meadowlark and Hong Kong Phooey.
