Was the highlight of my TV viewing in England when I had a chance to watch...

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monkey_%28TV_series%29

"Monkey is considered a cult classic in countries where it has been shown, 
especially in 
Australia, where its immediate widespread popularity superseded that of Japan 
and the UK. 
Among the features that have contributed to its cult appeal are the theme song, 
the 
dubbed dialogue spoken in a variety of over-the-top "Oriental" accents and the 
fact that 
the young priest Tripitaka was played by a woman. In Japan during the 
seventies, families 
were advised to encourage their children to watch the show, as a way of 
teaching them 
about Buddhism."
