It was the el cheapo version of Quinnsworth, Superprices or some shite. I should remember as I used to work there when I was in college.
There you go, thereās my childhood. I loved Wanderly Wagon. The oul boy took us to Eugene Lamberts puppet theatre one time when I was about 6, it was the best gig I had been to until the Eurythmics in the Point in 1988.

Did wanderly wagon ever actually finish?
I grew out of it when there were still about 875 pieces of jigsaw to go.
Iām not sure it finished properly as such.
I think this was the spin off show
Great for the hamstrings, did they ever give you bother?
Nope, but I could never run fast enough to properly test them out
