Now I can't stop watching Dixon of Dock Green! What a gem. We all loved Z Cars but wondered how they caught any criminals when the Police drove Ford Anglias - ours could barely do 50 downhill, when it wasn't busy rusting. I remember loving Spanish Gold tobacco and the red waxy paper it was wrapped in (same as the bread) but my favourite bubble gum was liquorice flavoured Black Cat. And melty Flying Saucers were nice, too. Where I came from (County Durham), us kids called these cheap sweets 'ket'. I have no idea why.
Ah such fond memories of such confectionary. Cherry lips were one of my favourites, as were flying saucers and floral gums.
