Just googled it, it was shown in 1970 - 72

The Double Deckers were a group of seven young adults (aged 9 to 16) living in London who hung out and played together in a converted doubledecker bus. The bus served as a club house for the kids: Scooper, Spring, Billie, Brains, Doughnut, Tiger, and Sticks (the only American member of the gang). The lone adult regular was Albert, a street cleaner, who was friends with the gang.

OMG ! Why Don't You...i loved that lol i still make 1 of the things they taught...

Loved the Banana Splits as well

How about the Clangers, The Tomorrow People, Chorlton n the Wheelies n Captain Pugwash...we were so innocent then.

Fav cartoon by far was Battle of the Planets followed closely by Count Duckula...yeah i was a bit older but i could catch the more 'adult' jokes in it

Can anyone remember this one???? Pipkins!

Mr Pipkins!! Who was a puppet maker in a shop. I remember watching this even tho I hated the (scabby) Hartley Hare, there was an Ostrich called Octavia and the pig, Topov I think was the monkey and Mooney (I had forgotten the monkey and other thing till I saw this pic!) Oh and a pigeon I can;t remember either. It was screened around 1973 at lunchtimes.
