Going waaaay back, Wally Whyton and Willum the Cat.

Ivor the Engine and Noggin the Nog, both by Oliver Postgate. That 'shertacue' noise that Ivor made has stuck with me ever since.

I remember Marine Boy as well.

Magic Roundabout with the doped up rabbit.

And of course The Bananananananana Splits.

Chips wrapped in newspaper.

Muffin the Mule (Illegal in 42 States )

The Woodentops

Bill and Ben

Watch With Mother

Noggin the Nog

Supercar

Fireball XL5

Saw all of them except Fireball XL5. I t started just after we moved to Wales, and where I lived couldn't receive ITV for about 5years.

I remember watching Quatermass and the Pit from behind the sofa.

Wikipedia suggests I would have been 8 years old at the time.

Me too! Scary stuff!  

There also used to be a compilation of Science Fiction and Horror film clips shown late on TV now and again (programme was a predecessor to Barry Norman's Film 'whatever year'). Showed clips from Quatermass, Them, War of the Worlds, Dracula and Frankenstein (old black & white versions). Should have been in bed but used to creep up to the living room door and watch it behind my parent's backs. Scared the hell out of me!

Another creepy TV programme.

"A Rubovian Legend."

The guy who posted this youtube video says, "This was a puppet show for kids in the early 60's. It used to scare the 'bejazus' out of me."   
Totally agree.

That WAS creepy, at that age !

The 'Rubovian Legend' looks vaguely familiar......At least, the puppets do. 
Can't remember much about it though.

One tv show that has always stuck in my mind was Anzacs.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anzacs_(TV_series)

I must have caught an the one episode back in 1985. Looking on Wiki it was probably either #3 or #4.

I can remember it being set in France or Flanders. The Anzacs were lying in wait awaiting the Germans to approach from their front. One Anzac hears a noise, gets up and looks over the stone wall of the field they were lying in wait in, and sees all the Germans in the next-door field all laid out in preparation to ambush the Anzacs. Both Commonwealth and German forces positioned sideways parallel to each other, expecting the other to come from the same direction through the fog to their front, when in reality they're side by side and within spitting distance. Obviously all Hell then broke out, and a rapid redeployment to the flanks performed.

I have it on DVD..good series . Bit of an Australian institution

Milk being delivered and the tops being pecked by the birds before you got to it.

Scampi in a basket.

Barrel glasses in pubs. Proper bitter on tap.

Peking, Bombay, Yugoslavia, East Germany
