    Does anybody remember this cartoon show?

    Used to love it when very young.

    Guy goes into a store or closet or something similar and trys on an outfit. Then when he leaves he is transported to that world to play the role...

    For example, if he put on a firemans outfit, he'd be play the role of a fireman for a day etc...

    Loads of adventures!

    So i looked this up on YouTube recently, to my surprise i found out that the whole thing lacks animation. Its just a picture with a guy telling you whats happening.

    Like they got a story book and read it out loud!

    Was convinced there was animation in this when i thought back... guess i was wrong! :pac:

    yes it was, and is a great show. It's usually on nick Junior around 8pm ish. My 2 year old niece loves it. Its from a time when kids had good stuff to watch on tv. she also likes bosco, the moomins, storybook international, the real wombles, Ivor and the real paddington.

    Ha, I used to LOVE Mr Ben... There was something about the voiceover on these sort of shows (Paddington Bear, Bagpuss etc) that was so intriguing when younger..

    But this was my favourite!
