Does anyone remember 'Betha'? I remember that I used to watch it when I was little, it was a green factory machine that made something new every episode. I can only remember one episode when somebody dropped a plant plot and it smashed. This program, combine with 'Rainbow' was the beginning of my mental health problems.

I don't remember Betha. I can remember Rainbow but used to love The Flumps and Bagpuss.

Cried every episode, I remember Bertha, and Rainbow - Zippy used to craze me. Love Bagpuss have several Bagpuss's in our bedroom and car ;).
