    jesus – did that programme actually have a beginning or an end? I just remember it seemingly going on forever and ever. There must have been 1000s of episodes.

    C. tells me that the theme tune also has a french version with totally different lyrics to the same tune, so it was a pan-european thing.

    thanks for the memory. loved that prog.

  3. adem says:

    All I really remember is Inca gold and flying golden condors.

    I was a bit naughty a couple of years ago and downloaded the whole series via bit-torrent.

    Still haven’t watched them!

    I can’t say as I’ve ever seen this particular show… But, then again, being that I live in the Americas, I’ve grown up with literal cities of gold, with rivers of purest honey and streets paved in pearl.

    ;)

    The programme probably made as much sense then as Dranonball Z and Pokemon do today.

  6. Stef says:

    OMG! I think I watched that entire series (I had no life at that age) and I seem to remember it did have a proper begining and end but I’ll be buggered if I can remember what they were!

    It did go on for ever. Don’t think I’d ever watch it again though even if I had all the torrents.

  7. Flash says:

    No, but the intro was very Star Trek.

  8. Ginny says:

    Funny, I thought it very Star Trekkie too (the intro). Maybe it’s the William Shatneresque voice.
    I’ve never heard or seen that series either.

  9. Stef says:

    Ooh, Jo Whiley is just talking about Mysterious Cities of Gold on Radio 1. Now there’s a coincidence!

  10. adem says:

    Stef – I just heard that too as I was in the car and had the radio on.

    So yes it did have an ending, and they did find the Cities of Gold….but not a completely happy ending…with more shenanigans going on.

    Do you think the person who rang up had been looking at my blog?…no
