Any of you Brits remember this kid's show? It was shown in the US for a little while, and I got to be a huge fan of it. I've been looking for it on video/DVD for a long time, with no success!
It did have a wet scene, in one episode. The show's hostess (I forget her name) got unexpectedly drenched with water!

Yeah I remember it, but I was really young when it was on.
If you go to
http://tv.cream.org/ (the best website around for those nostalgic about television shows) and look in their U-Z section, you'll find quite a detailed description of Vision On and the people involved in it.
CAREFUL .... TV Cream is very addictive. Once you start browsing it and listening to all your favourite theme tunes, your whole afternoon is gone before you know it!

Here's another good nostalgia television website:

They seem to specialise in very early stuff but it's OK for us oldies.

The Gallery Theme is actually a tune called Leftbank. Sorry I am in geek mode again LOL!

Wow - great to see a site keeping those earlier tv shows alive.
They have some information and footage of some of the earliest TV shows I can remember watching (like Captain Pugwash) but, sadly, nothing on the old Rupert the Bear show I used to watch (I remember before it was an animated cartoon, it was done with puppets).

We were thinking of having it running in the background of the forum gallery but Bill reckoned it would be funny for about five seconds and bloody annoying every other time after that!

Oh, man - just seen their Crackerjack footage with a very young Ronnie Corbett!!!
And I love that 'Robin Hood' theme tune!
Godammit - I'm hooked on another site.
