    You must have some memory. I remember watching the very first episode of Bosco aged 5 but can't recall it in that level of detail.

    Watching the repeats, actually :o

    Anyone name the male presenter here, the guy who goes through the magic door? Can't place him.

    Can anyone remember what Times The Tide from Bosco consisted of? All I can recall is that it was some sort of animation.

    Just to give you a heads-up, boys and girls,

    The actor who plays Bosco will be interviewed on Radio 1 at -edit- 18:30; he's today's guest on Des's Irish Discs :o (knock-off version of Desert Island Discs), spilling the beans on a career voicing the puppet we all loved... or were terrified of.

    Bosco sounds like he smokes 20 Major a day

    Remember someone kidnapped him and threw him into the UCD pond?
    It was on the front page of all the papers. So funny.

    Bosco was kidnapped. The kidnappers used take photographs of Bosco and used send them to a newspaper.

    Bosco was returned safe and sound as far as I can remember

    I thought it was 1985 but seeing as one the episodes on the DVD is dated 1987 I would say the latter.



    1996

    If the info on this RTE archive player link is right (and I have seen incorrect dates on it) "new" episodes of Bosco were still being transmitted in 1988. Probably produced 1987 and transmitted late 87/early 88. It's safe to say this must have been the last original series to be transmitted before they began rerunning old episodes well into the 90s.
