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

[MrsMoastyToasty]

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?

Saturday wrestling. The football scores, Generation game , 321 then Match of the day with packet of chips from the chippie then a late night Clint Eastwood film . Those were the days .

Sapphire and steel.

Fame!
Surely BBC must add this to iplayer now to let us relive our carefree youth???

Can anyone remember Murphy's Mob . I loved it but no one I know can remember it .It was based around an old football club with characters such as Gizmo and a rough Scottish manager .

I was in my 20s during the 1980s and whilst I recognise some of the programme titles and I think I saw the odd episode of a couple of things I have come to the conclusion I mustn’t have watched tv I’m that decade.

Am I strange to have never watched Dallas or Dynasty.

Howards’ Way.

Dynasty, A Team, Dukes of Hazard and 321

Moondial and Fame, Dynasty if I was allowed

Moonlighting with Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd. Loved it.

Rockcliffes babies

Charlie’s Angels (Sabrina was my favourite as she was brunette and was on my future baby girl list, and the Sabrina the Witch came along. Ruined the name for me).

Dukes of Hazard - caught an episode of this on tv the other day. Loved it.
