T-Bag
T-Bag :
T-Bag was a children's television program from the 1980's about a witch called T-Bag (short for Tallulah Bag I think). T-Bag's nephew was called T-Shirt!
In each episode there was a girl who used to have to complete a task in order to defeat the plans of T-Bag.
In total 94 episodes were filmed over a number of years including a couple of Christmas specials.
Originally T-Bag was played by Elizabeth Estensen who went on to play Diane Blackstock/Sugden in Emmerdale Farm and a regular guest was Roy Barraclough who appeared on the Les Dawson Show and in Coronation Street amongst other things.

The original fiendishly difficult puzzle,
now with solution guide
The original fiendishly difficult puzzle, invented by Erno Rubik in Hungary and one of the biggest toy crazes ever. In 1982 Hawkin's Bazaar was the first to bring a few cases of the Rubik's Cube to England. Unfortunately 25 years ago we were very small and it wasn't long before a much larger company had the exclusive rights to distribute in the UK. We are very pleased to be offering it again! And now includes a new seven step solution guide.

Also remembered...
I remember faking being ill to stay at home and watch this back in the 90s! It was about this puppet lamb called (appropriately) Lamb Chop and he used to misbehave. I think the woman who starred alongside him in it was Shari lewis. There was also Charlie Horse and Hush Puppy. The end theme was the most memorable thing about the programme for me - it was 'This Is The Song That Never Ends'. I used to get great pleasure annoing family and friends by singing this.

I seem to recall a related TV show called "Wonders in Letterland". Each time there was a girl who had to collect one particular letter while she was chased by T-bag. Anyone else recall this?

i think every one is right... i remember it being called somethign like wonders in letter land too... the aim of each episode was for the young girl to spell out a word and to find a golden "T" some where during her adventure... it was basically an educational version of the wizard of oz but made in the UK and for television. T-shirt had a crush on her and helped her out behind the witches back...

I loved T-Bag until they head changed her, the first one who now stars in Emmmerdale was fantasic, the second actress just did'n t do it for me at all.

I was working at the time but occasionally got to see it, can beat a few of the things kids watch today i think. And di you know there,s a tribute DVD coming out with the origanal cast, And i Have also met Kellie Bright a really nice person and still one of the countrys best actress.

Help! Does anybody remember a channel 4 80s kids show which had a man, someone dressed up as a dog and a machine that could make anything in their shop? This show is NOT Bertha. It was not an animated show and was broadcast un Sundays. Maybe chips came somewhere in the title or was the name of a character.
