"Oh Dear Oh Dear"

I've managed to find a few vintage episodes of the popular children's series "Chucklevision" on Youtube and particularly this one from 1992, called quite naturally
"On The Radio".

Basically it involves Paul trying to get his song that he's made played on the radio at any cost and features a guest appearance from nonenother than Dave Benson Phillips.
There are also some Sonifex cart machines and reel to reel recorders that can be seen within the episode which shows how much technology has changed in over 15 years.

Quite a lot of episodes from the series are on Youtube but the ones I'd really like to see include one from the series before the above episode when the pair try to convert a bingo hall back into a cinema, and another from a few years later where they play for Rotherham United with disastrous results.

Overall it shows how they've managed to continue with the series successfully
for 21 years.
