The Nanny and Seinfeld at midday was what I thought was the typical school holiday replacement for Jerry Springer, but Jerry never came back. RIP Jerry and his show on Ten.

I used to work in an office, and with Jerry Springer being on at lunchtime, that used to create a lot of discussion about whether it was appropriate for staff to be watching it in the lunch room on their breaks (in this age of cultural diversity, sexual harrassment etc).

That was 20-25 years ago though?

Sometime last year, I spent half a day watching YouTube videos from the shows and had an absolute blast.

I see you were a fan of Play Away.

I don’t think I was. I don’t really remember anything about it other than it being a BBC kids show. Maybe my brother contributed that bit of page graffiti. I’ll blame him
