Robert Hoffmann RIP

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

For those of us of a certain age...Hoffmann played the lead (well for most of the time the only) character in possibly the most remembered and iconic children’s TV series of the time - for some of us possibly of all time. Passed away earlier this month, but a passing worthy of note...

That's turned the clock back??

That tune brought back memories. I'm surprised that it hasn't been banned due to connections to the slave trade!

One of the best, always on in the school summer hols, along with Champion the Wonder Horse, Heidi, The White Horses, Belle & Sebastien, Casey Jones, Lassie, Skippy, and the best of the lot, The Flashing Blade.....

Edit: Almost forgot The Lone Ranger....

I'm a slightly different vintage but I saw most of them, making me feel very nostalgic. The one missing, you may not have had it but I remember it, the wonderful Zorro.

A round of applause for The Flashing Blade, brilliant music in that one as well.
