There are other programmes I have enjoyed that have been mentioned but I was probably not in my childhood by then.
 
Wow, some absolute classics mentioned here.

The Banana Splits when it included The Flashing Blade and Danger Island was good and so was The Double Deckers. I loved Space 1999 on A Sunday lunch time and any of the Camberwick Green style program's.

Has anyone mentioned Rhubarb and Custard, the one with Mary, Mungoe and Midge and, not forgetting, the totally excellent Captain Pugwash!

6 Million Dollar Man was unmissable to me as a kid.
Tom and Jerry - the call for that got us running down the stairs to watch it.(The proper Fred Quimby ones)
Voyage to the bottom of the sea - although looking back every episode was about the same! Crash into the bottom, one of the captains turned into a monster, launch the flying subs to save the day.
 
Anyone remember The Moon Stallion? God's Wonderful Railway, Graham's Gang, For Schools and Colleges programmes when you were playing a sicky :)
Not to mention all those great public information films like Dark and Lonely Water.
