This week on "My 70's TV Childhood," we're taking a journey back to the golden era of Great British TV—1973. It's a year that's become emblematic of classic television, still cherished by those who experienced it firsthand.
Whether you're savouring a cuppa or you've opted to conclude dry January with something a tad stronger (cheers from us!), prepare for a trip through the memories and mirth of 1970s television—and remember, it's all just for fun!
We start with the "Spin the Wheel" round, where fate has landed us in the year 1973. Brace yourself to revisit some of the era's TV treasures: 'Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em,' 'The Likely Lads,' and 'The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin.'
The "Fil Rouge" round beckons you to amble through the archives of our past episodes, offering a challenge of memory and wit to both our long term listeners and those new to the show.
Next up is our "Name That Tune" round, brimming with theme tunes that are sure to set your toes tapping.
Then, immerse yourself in the dynamic world of 1970s advertising with our "TV Times - 70's Ads" round, as we reminisce over the classic adverts that became household favourites.
Stay with us to the very end for the answers to the last quiz's feared bonus question, and steel yourself for the new one!
We'd be thrilled to hear from you—do share your scores, thoughts, and recollections.
