I have the ABC one and amazingly remember them all. Can't remember where I put my keys but I remember Sad Sack and the Raggy Dolls as well as the accordion was McDuff. I also watched far too much kids TV when my children were little. My eldest son's (now in his 30s) favourite show was Johnson and friends, I knitted him Johnson (the pink elephant) and my eldest daughter (now 28) the banana in pyjamas (we call it her emotional support banana) .The purple cow is also from Playschool. I made all the playschool characters at some stage and a Mr Squiggle once. Was always going to do another but never got around to it.
