Allsorts was one of my favourite pre-school programmes when I was younger and surprisingly enough I still love it many years later as well as Allsorts on a Wednesday lunchtime other pre-school programmes broadcast in the week were Playbox, Rosie and Jim, The Riddlers and Rainbow.

Thanks so much for uploading this to KZbin I really loved watching the pre-school lunchtime slot as they had brilliant programmes.

Allsorts was and still is a fantastic pre-school show which was broadcast in the lunchtime pre-school programmes block at 12:10pm alongside other classic shows for example Rosie and Jim, Playbox, The Riddlers and Rainbow.

Poor Boogie Bill. I wish they hadn’t made the ending to that story so scary, graphic and dramatic. 😮

Allsorts had a great year of episodes in 1991 starting from January it is a shame that the episodes from that month haven't resurfaced online many years later.

This episode of Allsorts was originally broadcast on Wednesday 6th November 1991

Allsorts Educational show which aired on CITV aimed at pre-school children, featuring memorable characters such as Jiffy, Bonzo, JJ, Spike the dog, and Box (a talking box). Jane became a familiar face to young children as her role as J.J. in the children’s lunchtime education and entertainment programme, Allsorts (later Gigglish Allsorts) from the fifth to final series (1990 to 1995).

Initially there were no plans for a second series of Zzzap! The reason Zzzap was created in the first place was to support Meridian as the new ITV broadcaster for the South East of England and to expand both Meridians’ and The Media Merchants’ children’s output - which was by January 1993 limited to 3 programmes (Zzzap, Wizadora and Eye of the Storm). Both Zzzap and Wizadora had proved successful and were recommissioned for new series. Series 2 of Wizadora was broadcast in Autumn - this time on the CITV slot. The first series of Wizadora was broadcast during the predominately pre-school lunchtime slot (Other programmes sharing the slot included Tots TV and Allsorts. The lunchtime slot was previously used for pre-school Thames/ Ragdoll/ Central programmes such as Rainbow, Playbox, Rosie & Jim and Rod, Jane and Freddy). The slot was frequently not directly linked or mentioned as CITV - and was incorporated into afternoon CITV in September 1993. That was actually a few months after the out-of-vision continuity service with Steve Ryde began (that had started in February and the preschool shift happened in September). The presentation and idents for the first twenty minutes was different to the rest of the strand however, and there were four mascots: Abacat (who was a cat who counted on an Abacus, is that the one you remember?), Cheesy, Mr. Clockface and Ruskman, who all remained until Stephen & Danielle came along in 1998. It was part of a substantial revamp of ITV daytime in Autumn 1993. Families was axed, the preschool programmes were merged into CITV, This Morning gained an extra 10 minutes as a result (the other ten minutes given to regional news) & Supermarket Sweep made it's debut at 9:25.

This was long before Jane Cox starred in Emmerdale as Lisa Dingle I believe that Allsorts was her first television appearance and she started her career on pre-school television.
