189 Roobarb
First watched : October 1974
No half-measures here; I absolutely hated this from the migraine-inducing animation and over-loud theme tune and found it so difficult to watch that I couldn't engage with Richard Briers' narration. I know it has its fans but I could never be one of them.
Roobarb was shown in the Magic Roundabout slot. Thirty five minute episodes were made originally. More than thirty years later it was revived on Channel 5 with rival Custard the Cat given equal billing as Roobarb and Custard Too. Briers returned as narrator and 39 more episodes were made.
