I was only referring to Seven based content… Nine had another set of shows produced from Adelaide and Brisbane.
Humphrey Bear was an Adelaide icon… I believe there are still murals of him in the corridors at Channel 9 Adelaide.

Could it be possible that the lack of children’s television programming may have contributed to the lack of education in our children?
Most of these after school programs were somewhat educational with the kids using their spelling, geography, problem solving and reading to participate in some of these TV programs.

A bit of ghosting on that recording. The good ol days of analogue TV.
Not for this thread but, it has been noted that from this batch of recordings from the same recorder that it’s only Seven that has ghosting.

Apparently Diarmid Heidenreich (Dougie) was hosting Challenger and had his episodes recorded around late 1996 when he was still awaiting trial after he was involved in a car accident under the influence of alcohol and drugs earlier that year, when he was later found guilty, he was replaced by the well known Adrian DeVito and Zoe Sheridan.

Ol Dougie looked like he didn’t really want to be there when he hosted it. Well, that’s the impression I got anyway.
Yeah, Diarmid always seemed bored on camera.
