    Things were pretty bleak for kid's TV in the '50s but when ITV started in '55/56 they brought in loads of stuff from the US, especially western series. The last lot above all came from Lew Grade's ATV company and were almost interchangeable : they just wore different costumes. But they were popular and also produced a number of future stars such as Roger Moore, Robert Shaw, Robert Hardy, and Paul Eddington.

    No no no. Tuckers luck was just an attempt to keep Tucker in public after Grange Hill finished. I saw one episode and that was too much.
