    Sixty years ago today, the Batman TV series premiered on ABC, starring Adam West and Burt Ward as Batman and Robin. The first episode, “Hi Diddle Riddle”, pitted the Dynamic Duo against the self-styled ‘Count of Conundrums’, the Riddler (Frank Gorshin).

  2. Apparently, it's Trading Cards for Adults Day. No, I don’t know who comes up with these things either.

    The first cards I remember collecting appeared in shops in 1966. These were The Riddler's Riddle, featuring scenes from the Batman TV series and movie. A delightful set of 38 cards, each with—as the name suggests—a riddle to solve on the back.

    One of my earliest memories is of opening a packet and discovering the cards inside were in Dutch.
