My 70's TV Childhood
My 70s TV Childhood is a British nostalgia podcast about growing up with classic television in 1970s Britain.
Hosted by Oliver Colling, each episode revisits the TV shows, theme tunes, adverts, presenters and memories that shaped a generation.
From Rainbow and Grange Hill to Doctor Who and The Good Life , if it was on television in 1970s Britain, we've probably covered it. Now in its 7th season with over 200 episodes, the podcast has built a dedicated community of classic British TV fans who share a love of 70s nostalgia and the golden age of childhood.

Quiz #70: Yabba Dabba Doo!
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Welcome back to the My 70s TV Childhood Quiz. This week we have a bit of a milestone: it is our 70th quiz, which I think gives a very pleasing bit of synergy to our whole 1970s theme. To mark the occasion, Round One is dedicated to the wonderful world of Hanna-Barbera cartoons. I will give you a catchphrase and you have to tell me which character said it. After that, we have our regular Marathon/Fil Rouge round, a spin of the Wheel of Fate for Name That Tune 1979, and the TV Times general trivia round to finish.
What to Expect:
- Round 1: Yabba Dabba Doo! Five Hanna-Barbera catchphrases. Can you name the character behind each one?
- Round 2: Marathon/Fil Rouge Questions drawn from over 200 episodes of the podcast. Regular listeners may have a slight advantage.
- Round 3: Name That Tune (1979) Five theme tunes from shows first broadcast in 1979. You'll need to listen to the podcast to play this one.
- Round 4: TV Times General 70s TV trivia. Anything goes.
- Bonus Question One final challenge to separate the casual viewers from the true obsessives.
Grab a pen and paper, settle in with your favourite brew, and let's see how many you can get right. Send your score to quiz@my70stvchildhood.com or drop me a comment on social media.
Take care,
Oliver
🎲 The My 70s TV Childhood Board Game is nearly here!
I have been working on something very exciting behind the scenes. I have designed a playable game version of the theme tune round, something you can sit down and enjoy at home with family and friends, and I am getting ready to launch it very soon. Thank you to everyone who has already registered their interest. If you have not yet done so, it would be a huge help if you could let me know whether you might like to buy one. There is no commitment at this stage.
