RE: BW pictures colorized in book
You both deserve an award ... watching it for more than a minute now is like visiting the dentist.

Watch With Mother was on Monday-Friday (Bill and Ben was Monday, Wooden Tops Tuesday, Andy Pandy ? ....) .
It was widely criticised in the 60's for Bill and Ben's encouraging children to speak in 'gobble-de-gook' ("Ah-allo-lickle-Weeeeed") ... but actually I dont think (?) it did me any harm. Probably helped with a lead-in to afternoon nap.
I suspect there was some inverted snobbery from critics due to the lady story-teller's very very upper class accent.

(Apologies for this Thread veering from Lincoln ... I wonder what he would have thought of Bill and Ben? dropped off to sleep, maybe)

Is king o' men for a' that” Robert Burns
