I watched Catweazel (or bits of it) a few times, had no idea what it was about but found him strangely good looking!!!

Re: RIP Geoffrey Bayldon

For years my children had no idea why we said lec-trickery or called the phone a telling bone...it all became clear when they saw a dvd of catweazel.

Amazing how some childhood things just stick.,

Re: RIP Geoffrey Bayldon

Yes, fabulous series, and a first class example of childhood magic on the screen. I still use the words "electrickery" and "telling-bone" now and again, which shows what an impression the show made on me. I used to puzzle my kids when using "shemhamphorash" when revealing something dramatic like a birthday cake or a present.

I think I recall him using the words "salmi almi adoni" as well, or something like that. I really hope they show the series again so my grandsons can love it too.

Re: RIP Geoffrey Bayldon

We bought the box set from Amazon to show the kids they loved it just as much as we did, I must look it out for grace I think it would be something she'd like too. It's also on you tube I believe for free.
