Here's a site I tripped across randomly just now - anyone else remember these series, early morning Channel 4 quasi-educational stuff?http://www.procidis.com/gb/debut.html

I remeber this show really well. The life one was the best as the little blood cells walked around the veins on people picking up oxygen bubbles from the lungs and putting them on thier backs. It was French if I remember and the brain and nerves were well funny!!

Heh. I definitely remember that. And Wordy as well. And Jigsaw. Also the Adventure Game. I still haven't got myself anything Monkey related, either, and that's one of those really early memories I have... "Born from an egg on a moun-tain top"!
