There is [award-winning] Life on Mars

UK TV trade paper Broadcast has announced its awards for 2006, and sci-fi cop drama Life on Mars is much mentioned. It was highly commended in the best drama series or serial category [behind winner Bleak House], got named best new programme and the show's maker, Kudos, was named best independent production company. The second and final series of Life on Mars starts in a new weeks and I can't wait. In the meantime, everybody and his dog have linked to this viral video plugging the new series of LoM, done in the style of a 1970s children's show. But, n the off chance you haven't seen it yet...

Okay, I've wracked my brains and come up blank. It's going to drive me mental until I find out ...

What was the name of the kids' TV show with the box?

Thank you!

For some reason I kept thinking of something called Chigley.

Chigley was made by the same person (Gordon Murray) and was a very similar series.
