I do remember Listen with Mother, but only the very beginning. It must be a very early memory as I could only have been two or so at the time it was axed. Unless they did repeats?
I agree it's sad there's nothing really equivalent nowadays. I suppose audio cassettes/cds were my daughter's equivalent. My Naughty Little Sister read by Felicity Kendall/ the Just William tapes by Martin Jarvis and Jan Francis who did a smashing job on loads of Blytons, but then she spent far more time listening to tapes etc in the car than I ever did as a small child. I do love books on tape now though. The Paul Temple ones are lots of fun!
