@Tinkles I watched a lot of CBBC too when I was a kid... but stop motion just wasn't for me back then. Even Pengu pissed me off 😅
But I learned to appreciate it a lot more later on.
I had a severe allergie problem, and I had to be at least inside for a couple of times to take my medicine which was vaporised and inhaled over a periode of time. So mom and dad bought a VHS and recorded every cartoon they could get their hand on so that their little boy would stay in the chair. Because Belgium back then only had 2 channels in dutch and almost NO kids shows... I watched german channels (ZDF and ARTE), French (TF1) and our Belgian (RTBF) and BBC. We also had the 3 channels from the netherlands where I could get cartoons from.
I largely learned to understand the neigbouring languages just by watching cartoons in languages that weren't my own. CBBC also had "Muzzy" back then, which was a great help.

@Tinkles Muzzy was a kids show with educational purposes. You can still buy them for the children to learn other languages.

Well, the experience has made me into a lazy TV watcher, but I've seen loads of cartoons. You have no idea how much cartoons I've seen.

@Tinkles I know this intro, but I'm not sure if I ever saw a full episode. I just wasn't into these things that much. Just like "super-gran", a kids show played with real actors... I kinda skipped most of those. I was just into cartoons a lot at time.
But no, I don't think only dementia can cure me of the CBBC phone jingle. And in that case, I rather won't get cured.
