I FOUND THE ARTICLE SCRAMBLED AND TRIED TO CORRECT IT. HOWEVER IT DOES NOT SAVE WHAT IS TYPED IN.

Also on BBC TV in the 1950s

[edit]

Thanks to whoever wrote this article, but part of the story is missing ... Toytown, Larry and Mr Growser et al were on BBC TV Childrens Hour in the early-to-mid 1950s, when I used to watch it at my grandparents' house (they had a TV).

Until I read this article, I had no idea that the series was still going in the ITV era. I'm surprised it wasn't considered far too dated by then! I don't have the knowledge to expand the article (nor the editing skills even if I had). Please, anyone? Wyresider (talk) 13:29, 7 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

-- "too dated"? Toytown is never "dated"! :-) 31.125.76.2 (talk) 10:22, 26 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

-- Mr. Growser - A disagreeable old gentleman who is always finding things to complain about - usually the behavior of his fellow citizens. His favourite phrase is "It's disgraceful, it ought not to be allowed!"

Mr Growser was my favourite character when I listened to Toytown on the 'wireless'(!). It's a small point and I may be wrong, but I have always remembered his favourite phrase as: "It's a disgrace! It ought not to be allowed!" 31.125.76.2 (talk) 10:22, 26 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
