Not sure It be the same anymore. Abdul 04-08-2003, 13:22 Is this the Monkey Monkey Magic programme with the flying carpet and all that? Are they reruns or a new series ? Lickszz 04-08-2003, 13:24 Originally posted by Abby Is this the Monkey Monkey Magic programme with the flying carpet and all that? Are they reruns or a new series ? Well, I presume it is Monkey Magic...that's what I based my reply on anyway. :) I think you mean the flying cloud don't you? if I remember correctly he used to wave his fingers in front of his mouth and summon the cloud. I would have thought they are re-runs. mh01 25-09-2009, 19:12 i use to love this programme does anyone know if its still on any of the channels? Crayfish 25-09-2009, 19:22 The stage show was great. mh01 25-09-2009, 19:23 when & where was that? Crayfish 25-09-2009, 19:25 It toured globally, but I saw it at the Palace theatre in Manchester about 18 months ago. Fantastic acrobatics, music by Damon Albarn and a good rendition of the story. Don't know if it'll run again. Both TV and stage shows are based on a well known (and epic) Chinese legend. mh01 25-09-2009, 19:26 so is it still on any channels? carltoncdx 25-09-2009, 19:50 And yes Tripitaka was a girl!!
