Welcome to "My 70s TV Childhood Quiz". In this exciting first quiz of 2024, we're returning to the vibrant world of 1970s television with our quiz designed to test your knowledge and bring back some great memories.
We kick off the episode with our famous "Spin the Wheel" round, where we randomly select a year from the 70s. This time, we've landed on 1979, a year rich with many popular TV shows ending their remarkable runs. We've prepared a series of brilliant questions about these shows, including: What sitcom ended its run on Christmas Day of that year? Who were the dynamic co-stars alongside Eric Sykes from '72 to '79?
In our next round, we revisit past podcast episodes, throwing in questions about the iconic Mr. Ben, Space 1999, and other memorable shows and characters. This segment is a treat for our regular listeners and an interesting challenge for newcomers!
Our "Name That Tune" round is sure to evoke some memories as we play snippets of theme tunes from various 70s TV shows. We bet you know them, but what's that show called?!
We wrap up with a "General Trivia" round, touching upon various aspects of 70s TV, from the Royal Variety Performance to the beloved Blue Peter Tortoise.
As always, we answer the dreaded bonus question from the last quiz. We know you have been on the edge of your seats!!
