The Changes occasionaly pops up on ebay - I'd love to see it. I wonder why the BBC dont commision more stuff like that, Children Of The Stones and ones like the Chocky Trilogy. Even up to the early 90's you'd get programmes like Tom's Midnight Garden and Moondial.

The title appears over a 47, but there's a 52 earlier in the title sequence.

Moondial was another fantastic series. Just this morning, coincidentally, I was searching for local photos for another thread (the Japanese War Tuba thread) and came across a photo of the Moondial itself.

They released two singles - the other one was called "This is the chorus". The chorus went:
This is the chorusIt goes round and around and gets into your brainThis is the chorusAnd twenty seconds from now, you'll hear it again.
I'm fairly sure that was them, anyway.

Just Our Luck -- the idiot program about a guy and his genie slave. Programmed against The A-Team; died.
There Goes the Neighborhood -- Buddy Hackett and two other lamers are 'hobos' in a very badly made-up sense who inherit a fortune and deal with a prim and proper butler all day

I remember this. I'm ashamed to admit I bought the 7" single. I thought the rubbish comedy show was a spin-off of the record, rather than the other way round.

The Children of Green Knowe
Geordie Racer (may have been part of a kids educational programme)
Some programme about a hotel, I don't know whether it was a drama or a comedy. My mum used to watch it on a friday or saturday night when I was quite young, maybe about 15 years ago. She doesn't know what I'm talking about though. I vaguely remember folk having affairs, some old woman wandering the corridors, I don't even know if it was british or american.

So Haunt Me - not bad for a BBC sitcom. It got mentioned in the press around here, because one joke featured a disparaging comment about the place.
The Children Of Green Knowe, I don't see how anyone could forget. I've thought about seeing if we could have a Cambridge FAP there - it's just off the A14, and they are willing to show people round if you get in touch in advance.

2. Strike It Rich - this was on the BBC and was about Premium Bond/lottery winners.
3. Maelstrom - spooky 1980's thriller set in Scandinavia. Scary-looking dolls played a prominent part.
4. Westbeach - Early 1990's post-Eldorado BBC soap effort at two feuding families in a seaside town.
5. Rides - Early 1990's drama about an all-women taxi firm.
Am I ringing any bells here?
