    You must be very young (ish).
    Childrens tv programme “ The Magic Boomerang” Young lad had it and if he chucked it time stood still so he could right wrongs. When he caught it time began. .. see it’s googleable :thumbsup:

    You can't have watched much BBC tv then. The whole network is riddled with irritating adverts for . . . BBC programmes.

    What's worse is that when they are running behind schedule, they still show these blasted adverts.:mad:

    whippersnapper….
    A whip-snapper was a seventeenth-century term for a young man with nothing better to do than to hang about idly snapping a whip.
    :D

    But there's only so many things that can be solved by looking for children trapped in mine shafts, surely?

    Are you suggesting that Skippy was being complacent? Shame on you .
