The Telebugs | The 80s ITV Robots with Tellys for Heads

Three robots with tellies for heads, a flying camera, and a professor who can't say his Rs... sound familiar? 🤖📺 First airing on Children's ITV from 6th January 1986 to 16th December 1987, the show ran for three series and a staggering 86 episodes – each just 5 minutes long. It was the very first series produced by Telemagination and was made for ITV franchise holder Television South (TVS). The Telebugs were three robots with television screens for faces. There was C.H.I.P. (Coordinated Hexadecimal Information Processor), S.A.M.A.N.T.H.A. (Solar Activated Micro Automated Non-inTerference Hearing Apparatus), and B.U.G. (Binary Unmanned Gamma camera), accompanied by their flying video pack M.I.C. (Mobile Independent Camera).
