Professor Poopsnagle's Steam Zeppelin 1986

Professor Poopsnagle's Steam Zeppelin was a popular Australian children's television series and a spin-off from the 1984 series Secret Valley. It was first aired 1986 in Australia and also later in Switzerland and Finland, Spain, Greece, Netherlands, France and Vietnam. In contrast to Secret Valley, which was a commercial failure in the United Kingdom when screened there in 1985, Professor Poopsnagle's Steam Zeppelin was hugely successful in the UK, where it was first broadcast in 1987 on the ITV network, and proved so popular that it was also later repeated on Channel 4 in both 1990 and 1998. The series still has a strong cult following in the United Kingdom today.
