There was no TV when I was a nipper, however my family used to listen to "Itma" on the radio. I myself ried to play "Dustmans Knock" (similar to Postmans Knocl - but dirtier) with the local females = ah those were the days

There was another western series starring Steve McQueen as 'The Rifleman'.

Then Hugh O'Brien in the long running 'Wyatt Earp' series.

I just loved the TV Westerns. Far superior to the sci-fi rubbish that kids are into today. But then again, that's just my opinion. It's probably more in tune with what's prevalent at the time.

Chuck Conners was the rifleman

I think you will find that Johnny Moriss first appeared as the Chestnut Man in the early 50's or the hot Chestnut Man.
