20 years ago, Broom Cupboard legend Andy Crane decleared the 28th of April 1988 as "National Willy Fog Day". The purpose of this day was to invite viewers to sing-along to the theme tune to "Around The World With Willy Fog" by sending in for a sheet with the lyrics in and this is due to the fact that the show has ended it's first UKTV run on BBC1. There is a clip of Andy on National Willy Fog Day on YouTube.

Now, 20 years later and Eightiestoonville brings you a tribute to this fine show. Featuring the show's four main protagionists, Willy, his butler Rigodon and his little friend Tico, and the lovely Princess Romy.

There is also another version of this artwork for the a href="http://www.80scartoons.co.uk"> 80s Cartoons website and I've even sent that version to Andy himself via the receptionist at Channel M (the local TV station in Manchester) where Andy now works as a news anchor. Hard to believe that a national childrens TV legend ended up reading the news on a local TV station!

Anyway here's the tune and here are the lyrics!

FOG, I'M THE ONE WHO MADE THE BET
AND I KNOW WE'LL BE EXACTLY RIGHT ON TIIIIME

FOG IS MY NAME AND I COULD PLAY WITH MY LIFE IN MANY WAYS
THAT'S WHAT THEY SAAAYYY

HERE I AM - A RIGADON
I'M A TICO - D'MASCOTA
IT'S MY TURN - THE GENTLE TOUCH
A ROMY THEY LOVE ME SO MUCH

HEY! NOW THEY STORY MUST GO ON
'CAUSE A LOT OF TIME HAS GONE
WE MUST BE READY
TO GO AWAAYYY

80 DAYS AROUND THE WORLD
WE'LL FIND A POT OF GOLD
JUST SITTING WHERE THE RAINBOW'S ENDING
TIME - WE'LL FIGHT AGAINST THE TIME
AND WE'LL FLY ON THE WHITE WINGS OF THE WIND
80 DAYS AROUND THE WORLD
NO WE WON'T SAY A WORD
BEFORE THE SHIP IS REALLY BACK

ROUND, ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD
ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD
ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD
ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD!

LOOK THERE'S A LION OVER THERE
LETS FORGET ABOUT OUR FEARS WE MUST BE READYYY
YOU RIGADON YOU HAVE TO SAVE ROMY'S LIFE
AS SOON AS DAYLIGHT WILL ARRIVE

TICO CAN BRING US THE LUCK
HE'LL FIND AROUND THE WORLD
ROMY NOW THAT YOUR WITH US
YOU'LL BE THE ANGELS OF THE TEAM

HEY! NOW THEY STORY MUST GO ON
'CAUSE A LOT OF TIME HAS GONE
WE MUST BE READY
TO GO AWAAYYY

80 DAYS AROUND THE WORLD
WE'LL FIND A POT OF GOLD
JUST SITTING WHERE THE RAINBOW'S ENDING
TIME - WE'LL FIGHT AGAINST THE TIME
AND WE'LL FLY ON THE WHITE WINGS OF THE WIND
80 DAYS AROUND THE WORLD
NO WE WON'T SAY A WORD
BEFORE THE SHIP IS REALLY BACK

ROUND, ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD
ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD
ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD
ROUND, ALL AROUND THE...

80 DAYS AROUND THE WORLD
WE'LL FIND A POT OF GOLD
JUST SITTING WHERE THE RAINBOW'S ENDING
TIME - WE'LL FIGHT AGAINST THE TIME
AND WE'LL FLY ON THE WHITE WINGS OF THE WIND
80 DAYS AROUND THE WORLD
NO WE WON'T SAY A WORD
BEFORE THE SHIP IS REALLY BACK

ROUND, ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD
ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD
ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD
ROUND, ALL AROUND THE...

Repeated to fade....
