Is it Crangs brother from

the teenage mutant ninja turtles........

time for bed I think... :x:

??????????

ah yes i remember now, thought i recognised it but had no idea where from

anyone remember 'star fleet' bit like terrahawks, but with 3 blokes, and their own space ships used to go together to make one big robot.

Evil Edna, from Willo the wisp.

 

"Evil Edna

 

Evil Edna is the wicked television witch who takes pleasure in performing ghastly tricks and jokes on the poor creatures of Doyley Woods. She uses her aerial to beam her nasty spells at people. She once turned a beautiful Prince into the Beast. She is selfish and vain, and is often teaching someone a lesson for their 'own good'. She calls Mavis 'fat', the Moog 'stupid' and she doesn't like Arthur. She has some feelings as she once fell in love with a BBC newsreader."

 

The title/naration voice over was done by the great Kenneth Williams.

 

"Nick Spargo first conceived the idea of Willo the Wisp in 1977 and, when it was first broadcast on BBC1 in 1981, it was an immediate hit. Designed and written specifically with the pre-news 5.35.p.m. programming slot in mind, the series though aimed at the 5-9 age group, actually appealed to a much wider audience and was able to reach them.

 

Indeed Willo The Wisp was so popular that it reached no 44 in the general BARB charts with peak viewing of 8.2 million (delivering slightly more than Jewel in the Crown and only slightly less than Benny Hill). It also remained at No.2 in the children's charts for many weeks. In later years it was repeated on Channel 4 in the 6 o'clock slot along with other classics such as The Magic Roundabout and The Clangers."

Wicked Wanda from Willo The Wisp?
Aging is a terrible thing. Of course it was Edna! D'oh!

Yep, Shiro Hagen, Lamia, Dai-X, Commander Macara, Orion. Theme music by Brian May!

Yeah! That was my favourite when I was a kid - like Terrahawks but with ultra-violence!

Surely "Battle of the Planets" was the programme of all time?!

 

"G-FORCE!!!"
