Roobarb and Custard

Roobarb and Custard was the one. Wobbly lines, nonsense voices, silly but clever, daft but spot on. It felt like my style even then. I liked the BBC shows generally, Blue Peter, Tomorrow's World, Top of the Pops. The music shows stuck the most, Top 40 on Radio 1 every Sunday, cassette ready to record off the radio. The sound of the charts and those wobbly lines on screen, that's probably where it all started.
