It's the 1980's and the telly's on. What are you watching?

I thought I might watch Dallas, perhaps that new Brookside and maybe Robin of Sherwood.
I might even open up a bottle of libfraumilch or mix a pernod and black. I've got one of those new remote controls attached to the telly too.
Anyone want a seat on the sofa?

Don't trip over the wire attaching the remote...

The A team

Cover Up ( gutted when the gorgeous lead died through a shooting accident while filming)

I was too young to drink but I believe Babycham was in vogue?

YeahRiiiiight · 24/03/2020 21:52

Dallas and Brookie on my list, too. But that’s evening viewing.

After school I’ll be watching CBBC. Cities f Gold, Dogtanian, Moondial.

I’ll probably be watching a sitcom later. Maybe Bread, Brush Strokes or Me And My Girl.

Can’t wait for the weekend and Saturday Superstore! Or Why Dont You? in the Easter hols 😆

I’m eating a cold plate of ham, eggs, pork pie slice watching Juliet Bravo on a Saturday night.

runwithme · 24/03/2020 22:09

Dynasty, Grange Hill, Fraggle Rock! I turned 4 i 1980 and was 14 by the end of the decade so a real mix of tv!

Queenest · 24/03/2020 22:10

Neighbours and be honest you’ll all be watching it too! Charlene and Scott..

Oh and Grange Hill, Only Fools, TOTP, and yes loved Dallas. Anyone remember V? TV programme about lizards who looked like humans.

Lastly I’ll mostly be crimping my hair.
