The Quiz # 51

Welcome back to My 70's TV Childhood Quiz, where we test your memories of what was on the box during that memorable decade!

This quiz is an offshoot of the My 70's TV Childhood podcast, which looks back fondly on what it was like to grow up as a child in 1970's Britain and the important role that television played in our lives back then. If you haven't listened, I really recommend you do.

As always, we have 20 questions over 4 rounds. It's just for fun, and the quizmaster's answer is the final one! So settle down with a pen and paper and your favourite beverage!

Here's what we've got lined up for you:

📺 Round One: Back to School! This quiz is scheduled to be released in early September when thoughts inevitably go to thinking about the return to school, even 40 or so years after Oliver left. From Grange Hill's head teacher to Top of the Form, can you remember these school-themed shows?

📺 Round Two: Marathon/Fil Rouge! Questions related to topics and personalities we've featured in previous episodes of the My 70's TV Childhood podcast. From The Tomorrow People to scary Anglia TV shows with famous film stars!

📺 Round Three: Name That Tune & Spin the Wheel! Our specially constructed wheel of fate has landed on... 1978! Our AI-powered theme tune generator has selected five theme tunes from TV shows first shown in the UK that year. Get your ears ready!

📺 Round Four: TV Times! Anything goes in this round – questions about various 70s television shows, personalities, and notable programming from the era. From Mork and Mindy to The Beverly Hillbillies!

And of course, we have our Bonus Question for this week: We all remember the days of Teletext with Oracle and Ceefax, but do you remember the name of the Post Office's version of a text information service that was launched in 1979?

Are you jumping for joy or are you hiding your head in shame?

Whichever, we do hope you've enjoyed playing, and if you have, why not involve your friends and get a bit more competitive!
