Used to watch all these too.
At my school everyone watched Rolf's Cartoon Club and due to his strange noises whilst drawing on the show the phrase "having a Rolf" was used as a euphemism for masturbation (little did we know!)

I used to watch Mr maker with my kids, a kind of follow on from art attack. My favourite kids show as an adult.

Image of skull with bits falling of it...."Warning team, there is a life force nearby who wishes to speak to you about the benefits of electric vehicles, make haste if you do not wish to be cornered"
Wholly appropriate for kids TV

An absolute must see for all the lads in my infants class was the Batman TV series with Adam West.
Brilliant then and brilliant now.
A classic.

I've still got the movie on DVD.
Love the scene at the start where he's being attacked by a very rubber looking shark whilst dangling from a rope from a helicopter before producing some 'Bat Shark Repellant' spray from his utility belt to ward it off. Stupidly brilliant!

Ahhh 15 to 1, possibly my favourite programme of all time. Contestants appearing series after series being seen as old friends.
The early years of Kevin Ashman & Mal Collier and Stockton's very own Walter Dobson.
Through the Antony Martin era where he always got the better of plucky Chris Russon.
Jolly Barbara Thompson a Secretary from Redcar winning a series.
Leslie Booth and his marvellous hair.
The era of 4 time champ Nick Terry and his terrific rivalry with maximum man Bill McKaig.
The lovely Amy Godel.
The multiple champions Daphne Fowler and Matti Watton and the nearly man Michael Penrice with his dickie bows.
Me and mum and our cuppas and biscuit barrel with William G for company.

There was an even earlier Batman serial made for the cinema. Watched it a few times when visiting my cousins in Stockton. Saturday matinee at the old Odeon, I think.

There's an old back and white one from the 30's or 40's but not a patch on the 60's one.
