    Does anyone remember the early 1960s tv cartoon called (something like) Foo Foo and Bo Bo ?



    I ask this simply because I cannot find any trace of it on t'net ( just comes up with drug slang ! ) - perhaps I'm not spelling it right ?



    It was about two triangular characters looking something like :-







    - perhaps Belgian or French ? - or did I just dream it ? !



    Not at all important to me , but a minor 'niggle' !!!

    I have one episode of Foo Foo. It was broadcast on ITV by ABC Weekend TV. The cartoon still has the ABC Weekend ident on the front.



    8mm prints of the cartoons do come up on ebay from time to time.



    see www.78rpm.co.uk for some more info.

    Hey thanks Arthur !! - That's the one - Foo Foo and Gogo , not Bo Bo !



    - is there anyway in which you could photograph the characters from your 8mm copy? - wait a moment; no, that's too much to ask ! and old 8mm film is fragile - Your confirmation that I didn't just imagine it is more than sufficient !! ( Thankyou )



    The link says , "Foo Foo is an engaging little fellow and is sure to delight children from six to sixty" . Well in 1960 I was only one year old , so that should have been "one to sixty"!



    Shown in 1960 ? ; no wonder my memory of it is a bit hazy.



    Thanks again, Arthur.

    Ady.

    Hey Ady. I too had been searching for some reference to this cartoon for about a year now. I had a vague recollection of the characters from my childhood but was beginning to think that I must have dreamt it. I thought it was perhaps Foo Foo and Gigi.



    But anyway, thanks for asking the question because your thread come up in my search engine and led me to find the answer.



    Kas.
