Robinson Crusoe TV

I mentioned on A. N. Other thread about going to film club at junior school on Thursday nights as most families didn't have a TV. in the early sixties.

We got ours around 1965 rented from Granada TV company and connected to the Link network (an early form of cable TV) which you had to pay a subscription for.

One of the first things I remember watching after coming home from school was us three kids sat on the floor watching Robinson Crusoe (Friday nights?). I've always loved the theme music and hearing this again has made me quite emotional as my sister is no longer with us...

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

That has just reminded me - I have never read Robinson Crusoe - must put it on the 'to read' list!
