I've enjoyed many children's TV programmes which aren't from my own childhood but those of my children's. Favourites have been Thomas the Tank Engine, Rosie and Jim (on the canal barge) and Brum (the little yellow car). Watching both Rosie and Jim and Brum with them gave me glimpses of Birmingham after I'd moved away to London. My kids loved these programmes - and secretly I did too !

the rest of it lumpammer..........Billy Bean and his Funny Machine (1953)​


Billy Bean built a machine to see what it could do,
He made it out of sticks and stones, and nuts and bolts and glue.
The motor sang chuggle-arang, chuggle-aruggle-arator,
And all of a sudden a picture appeared on the funny old cartoonerator.
Billy Bean built a machine to see what it would do,
It did the funniest things he’d seen,
So he called it his funny machine, machine,
Billy Bean and his funny machine.
