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?

Dies anyone remember the Saturday morning programme Number 73?

Was Mork and Mindy on already? Or did that come later?

Coronation Street
Brookside
The Thorn Birds
Blind Date
Hi de Hi
The Generation Game.

LA Law...the reason I became a lawyer! Not quite lived up to my expectations as a career, as formed by that programme, but I would still love to re-watch it!

Just watched this program called only fools and horses, it was really funny. I wanted to watch the new brook side but my mums having a dinner party and I have to help with the prawn cocktails

Emu’s World was the precursor to the Pink Windmill show.

Mork and Mindy was from the ‘70s I think.

Oh 78 to 82 was Mork and Mindy but there might have been repeats shown.

The woman who dragged me up said what we could watch so o once I got older I had very little interest but I do remember loving, the thorn birds, Robin of Sherwood, when I could get to watch bits of it. Loved knight rider. Fame. Lace a classic I still love the novel now.

Oh and:
Big Deal
Brush Strokes
Just Good Friends
and my all-time favourite ..
Ever Decreasing Circles.

Saturday Swap Shop !

I've got The Box of Delights on DVD. My uncle bought it me a few Christmases ago because I'm a sentimental arse, and now it's a Christmas eve tradition. Just me, the cat, box of chocolates, the DVD and a glass of something. Perfect.

Glued to the sofa for another mini series - Harry's Game.

Another vote for Rhentaghost!

CathyorClaire, I remember 'Harry's Game', with a red headed Derek Thompson who metamorphosed into Charlie Fairhead and lost his native NI accent.

Was The Sweeney in the 80s. Loved Juliet Bravo, Cagney and Lacey, It's a Knockout, The Krypton Factor, Cities of Gold May have been the 90s. Jasper Carrott, Morecambe and Wise, the Two Ronnies. Loved The Pyramid Game, Going For Gold, Winner Takes All. May have trampled over a few decades there

All of the above plus The Gentle Touch (that theme tune! 😭)
