Does anyone remember Dizzy Heights Hotel?

It was a kid's TV show from about 1989-ish. I was obsessed with the first series, then went sharply off it for some reason. Why am I asking about this? Because for some unknown reason I have the theme-tune running through my head and it won't go away ( Read more... )

hmmm - was it a semi-Henson kind of thing, with some puppets?

I'm rubbish at getting things in the post in time for anyone, but I hope Monday is lovely for you.

You're spot on - there were a few puppets including some rather grotesque hotel guests (I think those were probably what turned me off in later series!)

Thanks for the best wishes for Monday :-)

YES! Eustace Gristle! :)

I am so glad I'm not the only one who remembers it. It's one of the more obscure kids TV shows!

Dizzy Heights Hotel sounds like where I work. Except for the hotel part. I think I do have a vague memory of it - if it was on Childrens's BBC during the eighties, I probably watched it. :)

That name does ring a bell somewhere deep in my mind. Probably the part that houses Rentaghost, The Adventure Game and Is That A Fact?
