Noah & Nelly ?? Posted Tue Apr 18 20:42:24 BST 2000 by Paul

Can anyone please confirm that I am not going mad ?? I seem to recall a BBC kids programme in the mid seventies called Noah & Nelly. "All aboard the Skylark !" etc.. Well, NO ONE I have mentioned this to ever recalls it, and thinks I "imagined" it !!!!!!! Can anyone else shed any light on this as I know it exists ! I am sure it was a five minute cartoon, similar in style to 'Roobarb' on at 5.35pm, just before the main news. Come on people - tell me I am not the only person in the world that remembers this !!!!!!

Noah and Nelly never existed. But Skylark did. It starred Noah and Nelly. I remember it in colour, so it can't be that old. We got colour in 1978.

Paul is not mad! Noah & Nellie was repeated on Nickelodeon a few years ago. It WAS colour and noah did say "All aboard the Skylark" It was made by the same people as Roobarb. As TV Cream said it was ghastly/rotten whatever.

Noah and Nelly replaced Barbabapapa if I recall.As a kid I found it repetitve and boring.Every episode seem to involve N+N visiting various wonderlands inhabited by races of anthromorpic household objects who have some kind of political dilemma that was solved by Nelly knitting something.Their Beatles rip-off psychedelic vessel always had this tedious Moog fairground music accompanying its travels(not dissimiliar to the theme to ITVs Mr Trimble).Noah sounded like Hancocks impersonation of Robert Newton and Nelly was basically Mavis Wilton ,late of Cor.St.
