  1. I remember the Den I loved Zig & Zag could wait for them to be on after school, Dustin the turkey & Socky. Dont remember Bosco that much but the music oh my god, talk about taking a trip down memory lane


  2. AWWWWW I'm in Canada bawlin' me eyes out!! now where did I leave my zoga bongs!!

  3. dear god.......that was my favorite tv programme I remember crting my eyes out when I was a child and they took it of the air!!!!!!!!! what a blast from the past!

  4. he he. the den was good. Zig and Zag were the best, although I was probably already a teenager when they were about. Why we all loved Bosco so much I will never know or understand. that red hair and green shirt and that most awful voice!!!!! Anything goes was a good one too.

  5. Good JAYSUS........Bosco......I never really watched him I could not listen to the high pitched squeaky voice.....but I do miss those time of innoncence playing kick the can.kiss chasing ,gulleyrs.going into Dublin city at halloween and having an 'oul won take ten bangers out of here bra on Henry street and given her a fiver for them and praying to god that you would'nt get caught by the Gardai.....Going to Skerries beach and going on the amusement rides (its still there)

    Thanks for the memories

  6. Oh the memories.  Used to love the Den.  Zig and Zag were brilliant.  My little sister used to watch Bosco.  We all had to suffer through it.  His voice used to go through my head.  She bought it on DVD a while ago and made me sit through it again.  I have to say I think its a lot better than the tripe that's on TV for kids now.

  7. Gosh Wonderly waggon & bosco .What iniscent days they were.My eldst son now 30 appeared on the wagon when he was a baby .He was in Our Ladys hospital crumlin when they were doing their christmas show.He also loved bosco

  8. Awww I loved Bosco lol lol .. It certainly brings it back

  9. AWWWWW God that really takes me back. The Den was bloody brilliant! My daughter loved it and it gave me an excuse to watch too. Bring back Zig and Zag I say. As for Bosco, God his voice did my brain in . . .And as for Wanderly Wagon!!!! Jaysus that takes me back to my own childhood way way back in the 70s. Ah those were the days.  Thanks for the memory trip.

  10. AAAWWWWWWW!!!

  11. Holy God. That made the hairs on the back of me neck stand up. Really took me back. They've brought Bosco out on dvd now. You can't beat the old ones!! I used to be on the Den every Friday when I was a child. A programme called Echo Island. I was a child reporter!! We were called stringers!!

    That's my claim to fame. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.!!

  13. Oh my good god.  Brought back some good ones there.  I loved the Den when it started up. Even liked Bosco when that started up in 1979, still remember the synthesized music. Zig and Zag from Zog with Zuppy their blue puppy. The Dustin came, then Podge and Zag show. Then Socky, Snotser Gallagher the pink pig. Crazy stuff but loved it.
